Climate-driven expansion of rice virus vector pests threatens global food security.
Article in Pest management 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
backgroundClimate change, rice viruses, and viruses vector pests are major threats of global rice production. The future climate could create more suitable habitats for insect vectors that transmit rice viruses. Here we leveraged large-scale data to examine present and future (2041-2060) suitable habitats of six rice viruses that were transmitted by 10 insect vectors. We associated these habitat predictions with rice cultivation areas to assess potential climate change impacts on rice productions.
resultsUnder the future climate, the suitable habitats of rice virus vector pests are expected to expand: the habitat area is projected to increase by 34.97% under the local dispersal scenario and up to >230% under the full dispersal scenario in 2041-2060. Among the six major rice viruses, rice dwarf virus and rice stripe virus pose the greatest threats in India and China, respectively, under the future climate. Emerging risk regions were identified in North America, South America, and Africa. More than 70% of rice cultivation areas in China and India fall into potential risk areas of two or more insect vectors. Under both the local and full dispersal scenarios, these infested areas are projected to increase to approximately 80% during 2041-2060.
conclusionIn regions facing poleward expansion or potential long-distance invasions, our findings underscore the need for adaptive strategies, including strengthened international quarantine measures, enhanced pest monitoring networks, and early warning systems, to mitigate the potential impacts of climate change on rice production. © 2026 Society of Chemical Industry.
