Identification of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis Race 2 in Central Taiwan and Its Potential Biocontrol Agent.
Article in The plant pathology journal, 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
In 2022, a wilt disease was found in the melon in central Taiwan, resulting in severe yield losses. To identify the causal agent, both morphological and molecular identification were conducted. Together with the results of host range tests, the pathogen was identified as Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis race 2 (FOM). To develop a sustainable and eco-friendly method for disease management, the culture broth and culture filtrate of two potential biocontrol agents, Bacillus mycoides strains BM02 and BM103, were evaluated against FOM in a greenhouse. The results revealed that B. mycoides strain BM02 consistently and significantly (P < 0.05) reduced the disease when applied via foliar spraying or soil-drenching, compared to the water control. To our knowledge, this is the first report confirming FOM race 2 in Taiwan and the biocontrol results suggested that BM02 could be promising for managing melon Fusarium wilt.
