Infrageneric variation in partner specificity: multiple ectomycorrhizal symbionts associate with Gnetum gnemon (Gnetophyta) in Papua New Guinea.
Article in Mycorrhiza, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Majority of autotrophic plants and fungi associate with multiple mycorrhizal partners, with notable exceptions being Gnetum africanum, Pisonia grandis, and Alnus spp from the phytobiont perspective. We hypothesized that an understorey tree species Gnetum gnemon hosts a narrow range of mycobionts as shown in G. africanum and suggested for South American species. Sampling and molecular analysis of G. gnemon root tips revealed that besides Scleroderma spp. this gymnosperm tree associates with several fungal species from unrelated lineages. However, all Scleroderma isolates that associate with Gnetum spp. belong to a narrow clade close to Scleroderma sinnamariense. Our results demonstrate for the first time that specificity for mycobionts may substantially differ within an ectomycorrhizal plant genus.
