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

backgroundAlternaria brown spot (ABS), caused by Alternaria spp., is an important disease affecting mandarin production in several citrus-growing regions worldwide. In Brazil, ABS has become increasingly problematic in Paraná State, where high disease pressure and reports of control failures have raised concerns about the long-term efficacy of fungicides. Demethylation inhibitor (DMI) fungicides are commonly used in ABS spray programs; however, the rising frequency of resistant Alternaria phenotypes may compromise their efficacy and sustainability. This study aimed to (i) assess DMI sensitivity and cross-resistance in Alternaria spp., (ii) investigate CYP51 expression differences between tebuconazole-sensitive and tebuconazole-resistant isolates, and (iii) assess the practical efficacy of tebuconazole in detached-leaf assays.

resultsFifty-four isolates were grouped into three DMI phenotypes for resistance (R) or sensitivity (S): DIF

conclusionCYP51 overexpression contributes to DMI resistance in Alternaria spp., and practical and cross-resistance among fungicides may limit ABS management strategies. Mefentrifluconazole and difenoconazole are effective fungicides for resistance management in Brazilian mandarin orchards. © 2025 The Author(s).
