Microbial degradation of Diquat by strain
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 continuous and extensive use of pesticides has negative impacts on the environment and human health. Microbial remediation is an eco-friendly and economically efficient technology, which is of great significance. In this investigation, the degradation of the herbicide Diquat by yeast Wyslmt was studied in medium under different conditions. The degradation rate of Diquat showed a pattern of first increasing and then decreasing with the increase of the inoculation amount of Wyslmt, temperature, pH and the initial concentration of Diquat. The biodegradation transformation products (BTPs) formed by the microbial degradation of Diquat in the culture medium solution were isolated and identified by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with time-of-fight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF-MS). Based on the mass spectrometry information, three main transformation products were determined. The calculation of components, the comparison of structural analogues, and the existing literature are all helpful for the determination of the structure. The main pathway of microbial degradation was C-C bond broken, hydroxylation and demethylation. These results lay the foundation for further environmental risk assessment and provide a reference for the bioremediation evaluation of bipyridine herbicides.
