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

Wheat Stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), poses a significant threat to wheat production globally. Understanding regional virulence patterns is crucial for effective resistance gene deployment and sustainable disease management. A total of 209 Pst isolates were collected from six provinces (Gansu, Qinghai, Shaanxi, Hubei, Henan, and Jiangsu) across two major epidemic regions in 2023-2024. Isolates were tested against 19 Chinese differential hosts and 18 Yr single-gene differentials. Using Chinese differentials, 54 races were identified, with CYR34 (19.62%), CYR32 (10.53%), and CYR33 (9.09%) being predominant; 31 were new. The Yr single-gene differential detected 63 races, VR1 (10.05%), VR2 (6.22%), and VR3 (5.74%) were the most frequent in the VR (Virulence Race) system, where numbers indicate sequential race designations based on distinct virulence patterns. Virulence assessment showed overwhelming prevalence against 17 Chinese varieties and 10 single-gene lines (> 60% frequency), while complete susceptibility absence occurred against Zhong 4 (Yr genes unknown), Triticum spelta Album (Yr5), Avocet S*6/Yr5, and Avocet S*6/Yr15. This study validates the superior discriminatory power of Yr single-gene differentials for Pst race identification and provides essential baseline data for regional resistance breeding programs. The findings support the adoption of enhanced surveillance systems for sustainable stripe rust management in China.
