Plant resistance: scientific basis and latest research progress.
Review in Frontiers in plant science, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Plant resistance to insects and diseases is a cornerstone of sustainable agriculture, reducing dependence on chemical pesticides and enhancing long-term crop resilience. Plant resistance is a suite of constitutive and inducible defenses, including structural barriers, biochemical defenses, signaling pathways activated upon recognition of pest or pathogen derived cues. Understanding how plants perceive biotic stress and mobilize these defenses through secondary metabolite production, reinforcement of physical barriers, and coordinated regulation of defense genes, is essential for designing effective management strategies Host plant resistance to insect herbivores exemplifies how specific plant traits can deter feeding, limit pest survival, or reduce reproduction. Advances in biotechnology, such as CRISPR/Cas9-based gene editing, RNA interference (RNAi), and transgenic approaches, have accelerated the development of crops with enhanced and durable resistance. These technologies enable precise manipulation of key resistance genes and pathways. Likewise, the integration of traditional methods with marker-assisted selection and genomic selection is improving the efficiency and accuracy of developing resistant cultivars. This review highlights the importance of dissecting plant-insect and plant-pathogen interactions at the molecular, biochemical, physiological levels to inform robust resistance integration. Future research that leverages advanced technologies and integrates resistance traits with agronomic performance will be pivotal for advancing sustainable pest management and ensure global food security. Together, these insights underscore the essential role of plant resistance in integrated pest management and crop improvement programs.
