Integrating AI and CRISPR Cas13a for rapid detection of tomato brown rugose fruit virus.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
The Tomato Brown Rugose Fruit Virus (ToBRFV) has recently emerged as a serious threat to global tomato production, underscoring the need for rapid and sensitive diagnostic tools. Here, we present an AI-driven CRISPR-Cas13a pipeline for designing crRNAs with high specificity to enable the detection of ToBRFV. A computational pipeline that retrieves viral sequences, aligns them in multiple sequence alignments, analyzes their conservation, and screens for off-targets-all coupled with machine learning to optimize crRNA sequences. Experimentally validated crRNAs were evaluated with a fluorescence-based Cas13a assay and showed better sensitivity than RT-PCR, RT-qPCR, and RT-LAMP. By the CRISPR-Cas13a system, ToBRFV was detected at 1:200 (1 ng/µL) dilutions, which performed superior to conventional methods. Integrating bioinformatics with experimental workflows, this pipeline provides a powerful framework for rapid diagnostics that can be deployed in the field, addressing significant challenges in plant virus surveillance and management.
