Physiological and biochemical responses of green microalgae from different habitats to osmotic and matric stress.

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
Growth of five aeroterrestrial green algal strains (Trebouxiophyceae) in response to changing water availabilities-caused by osmotic (ionic) and matric (desiccation) stresses-was investigated in comparison with a freshwater and a marine strain. All investigated algae displayed good growth under brackish conditions while four out of the five aeroterrestrial strains even grew well under full marine conditions (28-40 psu). The comparison between growth responses in liquid medium, on solid agarose, and on glass fiber filters at 100% air humidity indicated a broad growth tolerance of aeroterrestrial algae towards diminished water availability. While two aeroterrestrial strains even grew better on solid medium which mimics natural biofilm conditions, the aquatic strains showed significant growth inhibition under matric stress. Except Stichococcus sp., which contained the C6-polyol sorbitol, all other aeroterrestrial green algae investigated synthesized and accumulated the C5-polyol ribitol in response to osmotic stress. Using (13)C NMR spectroscopy and HPLC, it could be verified that ribitol functions as an osmotically regulated organic solute. This is the first proof of ribitol in free-living aeroterrestrial green algae. The biochemical capability to synthesize polyols under environmental stress conditions seems to support algal life outside aquatic habitats.
