Article Synopsis
- The text discusses the rapid development of Large Language Models (LLMs) like OpenAI's GPT and their increasing importance in fields such as science and medicine, yet highlights the need for evaluating their quality and effectiveness in statistical applications.
- The project's objective is to explore the utility and satisfaction of LLMs in statistical consulting by creating and assessing a training module, while identifying strengths and areas for improvement.
- The study employs a multimodal approach, incorporating both qualitative and quantitative methods across four parts to gather insights on using LLMs in consulting, evaluating training effectiveness, and understanding staff experiences and attitudes at the Medical Center and University of Freiburg.
Soybean cyst nematode (SCN, , HG) is one of the severe pests in plant-parasitic nematodes, which impairs root development and causes severe losses in soybean production worldwide. Breeding SCN-resistant cultivars is an important measure for securing harvests without affecting the environment, as can be done with pesticides. The majority of genetic resources for plant pest resistances are found in wild or closely related species which are often difficult to use in breeding due to crossing barriers or close linkage with unfavorable agronomic traits.

Especially in China, the implemented measures to control SCN are insufficient for sustainable agricultural development yet. We summarized our knowledge about the spread and spatial distribution of SCN in China and the virulence diversity in the main soybean growing areas.

In addition to reducing yield and quality of sugarbeet, the control of leaf spot disease by extensive fungicide application incurs added costs to producers and repeatedly has selected for fungicide-tolerant C.
