Aaaaahhhhhh ! One of my favourite papers, which is about the efficient use of water by plants, has just been cited in this sentence "[...] as stress-induced flower or seed abortion is typically irreversible (Brendel, 2021[...]". There is zero information in my paper about flower or seed abortion. Such wrong citations are actually nearly more the rule than the exception now, but I get §&$%"&% every time : did they not read my paper ? Why cite it then ? Do they pick random papers, just for more citations ? Have they even read the title ?
