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

Colletotrichum falcatum is a major fungal pathogen responsible for severe disease in sugarcane. Here, we report the complete genomic characterization of a novel mycovirus infecting C. falcatum, designated Colletotrichum falcatum victorivirus 1 (CfVV1). The CfVV1 genome is 4,906 base pairs (bp) long and comprises two open reading frames encoding a capsid protein (CP) and an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP), overlapping at an AUGA motif. The predicted proteins share ca. 70% and 68% identity with those of Colletotrichum cliviicola victorivirus 1 and Colletotrichum nativitas totivirus 1, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis based on concatenated RdRP and CP amino acid sequences places CfVV1 within the genus Victorivirus of the recently established family Pseudototiviridae. Transmission electron microscopy confirmed the presence of isometric virus-like particles ca. 40 nm in diameter, consistent with the typical morphology of victoriviruses. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a complete victorivirus genome infecting C. falcatum.
