Pre-Harvest Strategy for Improving Harvest and Post-Harvest Performance of Kale and Chicory Baby Leaves.
Article in Plants (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
A greenhouse trial was conducted in Southern Italy to examine the effects of foliar applications of two substances, methyl-jasmonate (MeJA) and a zeolite, on the harvest and post-harvest performance of two hydroponically grown baby leaf genotypes (leafy chicory 'Cicoria costa rossa'; kale 'Cavolo nero'). MeJA is a phyto-hormone primarily studied for fruit and post-harvest applications, while zeolite is typically used for pest and disease biological control. MeJA (Sigma-Aldrich Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany), and a commercial zeolite (Big-Zeo, Agricola Internazionale s.r.l., Pisa, Italy) (BigZeo) were sprayed twice at the second and fourth true leaf stages (BigZeo, 5 kg ha
