1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Pea root rot, caused by soilborne pathogens such as Aphanomyces euteiches, various Fusarium species and Pythium ultimum, represents a significant challenge to global pea production. Current diagnostic methods are costly, time-consuming and require specialised laboratory setups, limiting their application for rapid decision-making in agricultural settings. To address this, we developed a Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) assay targeting the Internal Transcribed Spacer 1 (ITS1) region of these pathogens for rapid and in-field detection. The assay demonstrated high specificity and sensitivity, with detection limits as low as 0.02 ng of gDNA and an initial inoculum of 10 spores per sample in both soil and infected root tissue. Results were generated within 60 min, providing a practical alternative to conventional diagnostic methods. Validation with qPCR showed LAMP to be comparable or superior in accuracy, and field deployment with a portable LAMP device confirmed its effectiveness for on-farm diagnostics. This LAMP assay offers a robust, cost-effective and user-friendly tool for the early detection of pea root rot pathogens, enhancing disease management and potentially reducing crop losses.
