Divergent effects of successive drought and flooding on photosynthesis in wheat and barley.
Article in Frontiers in plant science, 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
Climate change is leading to increases in extreme weather events, notably increasing both droughts and floods, which undermine food security. Although each stress individually has been well studied, little is known about the response of cereals to successive water stresses, condition that often occurs in real-world scenarios. To address this gap, we have compared physiological responses of wheat and barley cultivars to cycles of drought and flooding. We show that these species show different responses to each other and that successive stresses result in different responses to single stresses. Plants were subjected to control, drought or flooding treatments for 15 days. Following that, previously stressed plants were exposed to a further stress - drought followed by flooding (D-F) or flooding followed by drought (F-D) for a further 15 days. These cereals showed contrasting responses both to drought or flooding alone and to successive stresses (D-F or F-D). Barley retained photosynthetic capacity when exposed to single- drought or flooding, whereas wheat responded to both stresses with significant declines in CO
