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

backgroundBrome grass (Bromus diandrus) is a prevalent weed in southern Australian cropping regions which causes significant economic damage in crops and pastures. Before harvest 2023, two populations (named 6-24 and 7-24) suspected of resistance to imidazolinone herbicides were collected from separate fields. Preliminary screening indicated that these populations were resistant to several different acetolactate synthase (ALS)-inhibiting herbicides. Therefore, further characterisation of the level and mechanism of resistance was carried out.

resultsThere was high survival of the resistant populations at the maximum tested rates of sulfometuron (600 g ha

conclusionsThis is the first study reporting a Trp574-Leu mutation as the basis for cross-resistance to ALS-inhibiting herbicides (sulfonylureas, imidazolinones and triazolopyrimidines) in Australian populations of B. diandrus. Control of these populations will require strategic use of pre-emergence herbicides and herbicide-tolerant crops in combination with harvest weed seed control. © 2026 The Author(s).
