Foliar biostimulant boost physiological resilience and reproductive growth, increasing cotton yield.
Article in Frontiers in plant science, 2026. 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
Introduction: Cotton is a crop of major economic importance, often cultivated under environmental conditions that expose plants to abiotic stresses such as heat and water deficit, which negatively affect physiological performance and yield. Biostimulants have emerged as promising tools to enhance plant resilience and productivity under such conditions. Methods: This study evaluated the effects of foliar application of a novel biostimulant "SB", based on a Glicoligno Lipidic Complex, at different dose rates on antioxidant metabolism, photosynthetic performance, agronomic traits, and boll yield of cotton grown under central Brazil conditions. The treatments promoted significant improvements in physiological efficiency, particularly at higher application rates, with the 2.0 L ha Results and discussion: Foliar application of the novel biostimulant SB (Glicoligno Lipidic complex) significantly improved physiological and agronomic performance of cotton grown under central Brazil conditions. SB enhanced net photosynthesis (A) by up to 15.3%, and water use efficiency (WUE) by 12-20.5% (
