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

Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) seedlings inoculated or not (NM) by a Zn-sensitive or a Zn-tolerant isolate of the ectomycorrhizal fungus Suillus bovinus (L. Fr.) Roussel were exposed to 0.1 or 150 muM Zn(2+) for 9 months. We hypothesized that inoculation with a Zn-tolerant S. bovinus isolate should result in added Zn resistance of the host plant. Plant and fungal growth as well as nutrient profiles and photosynthetic pigments in pine needles were quantified. In NM plants and in plants colonized by the Zn-sensitive isolate, plant growth, N, P, Mg and Fe assimilation were strongly inhibited under Zn stress and concurred with significantly reduced chlorophyll concentrations. In contrast, plants colonized by the Zn-tolerant isolate grew much better and remained physiologically healthier when exposed to elevated Zn. These results provide further evidence for the important role metal-adapted mycorrhizal fungi play as an effective biological barrier against metal toxicity in trees.
