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

taxonomyCucurbit leaf crumple virus (CuLCrV); Begomovirus cucurbitae; Geminiviridae; Geplafuvirales. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: The presence of CuLCrV is exclusively limited to North America, mainly Mexico and the United States. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES: CuLCrV is a bipartite begomovirus comprising two circular single-stranded DNA molecules (DNA-A and DNA-B), encapsidated within geminate icosahedral particles. GENOME AND ORGANIZATION: CuLCrV possesses a bipartite genome of DNA-A (2632 nucleotides) and DNA-B (2600 nucleotides). DNA-A contains five open reading frames (ORFs): AV1 (coat protein), AC1 (replication-associated protein), AC2 (transcriptional activator protein), AC3 (replication enhancer protein) and AC4. DNA-B contains two ORFs: BV1 (nuclear shuttle protein) and BC1 (movement protein). TRANSMISSION: CuLCrV is transmitted by the sweetpotato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci, in a persistent, circulative and non-propagative manner. HOSTS: CuLCrV primarily infects crop members of the Cucurbitaceae and snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris, Fabaceae). Multiple weed species belonging to Brassicaceae, Convolvulaceae, Cucurbitaceae and Verbenaceae act as persistent virus reservoir hosts. SYMPTOMS: Symptom expression varies with host and infection timing. In cucurbits, infection induces leaf crumpling, thickening and downward curling of leaves, with green streaks and distortion of fruits. In snap bean, symptoms include leaf distortion, chlorosis and malformed pods. CONTROL: No commercial cultivars with resistance to CuLCrV are available for cucurbit crops, although some resistance has been reported in snap bean cultivars. Therefore, management relies primarily on integrated disease management.
