Molecular Strategies to Overcome Fungal Virulence in Crop Protection.
Review in Microbial biotechnology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Fungal pathogens are major threats to global crop production, intensified by rising fungicide resistance and the limited availability of resistant cultivars. This highlight article outlines recent molecular strategies aimed at reducing fungal virulence through sustainable and targeted approaches. RNA interference (RNAi) has emerged as a precise method to silence essential genes in pathogens, significantly impairing virulence and development. In parallel, inhibiting fungal efflux transporters-particularly ABC and MFS proteins-has been shown to reverse multidrug resistance and restore fungicide efficacy in pathogens like Botrytis cinerea. Additionally, engineering biocontrol agents expressing anti-apoptotic genes enhances their growth, stress resistance, and mycoparasitic activity. These strategies collectively illustrate the potential of combining RNAi technologies, efflux inhibition, and genetically enhanced biocontrol agents to create integrated, environmentally friendly plant protection systems. Such precision-targeted approaches represent a promising alternative to traditional chemical control, aligning with global efforts to achieve sustainable agriculture.
