Ecological significance of microdiversity: coexistence among casing soil bacterial strains through allocation of nutritional resource.
Article in Indian journal of microbiology, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 4 papers.
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
A combination of cultivation-based methods with a molecular biological approach was employed to investigate whether bacteria with identical 16S rRNA gene sequences can represent distinct eco- and genotypes. A set of eight bacterial strains wherein three were Pseudomonas putida and rest were Acinetobacter calcoaceticus, were isolated from casing soils community by conventional plating. These strains had identical 16S rRNA gene sequences and represented the dominant phylotype in the plateable fraction. Each strain utilized a specific combination of 154 carbon substrates, and the niche overlap indices were low, suggesting that each strain occupied a different ecological niche. Our results have implications for assessment of the diversity and biogeography of bacteria and increase the perception of natural diversity beyond the level of 16S rRNA gene sequences. It is worthwhile approach to explore prokaryotic diversity in different ecological niches.
