Integrative decision-support framework identifies drought-resilient sugar beet genotypes under water-limited conditions.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Drought stress is a significant limitation to sustainable sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) production, underscoring the need for genotypes that maintain yield under water scarcity. This study evaluated 20 sugar beet genotypes under drought-stressed and non-stressed conditions using key stress tolerance indices to identify drought-resilient candidates. Significant variability was observed among genotypes, confirming the presence of exploitable diversity for improving drought tolerance. Strong associations among productivity-based indices indicated consistent performance patterns across environments. Multivariate analyses, including hierarchical clustering and principal component analysis, effectively differentiated genotypes based on stress-adaptive responses. To improve selection accuracy, multi-criteria decision-making approaches were applied. Across Fuzzy TOPSIS, Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), and VIKOR rankings, Genotype 3 consistently demonstrated the highest drought resilience, followed by Genotypes 5 and 13. These genotypes exhibited superior yield stability and reduced stress susceptibility, highlighting their suitability for cultivation in drought-prone regions. Indices such as GMP, STI, and REI were identified as the most influential contributors to stress tolerance. This integrative evaluation framework provides a reliable tool to support strategic genotype selection and breeding decisions and to strengthen efforts to develop climate-resilient sugar beet cultivars.
