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

A novel degenerated primer set was designed to amplify acyl homoserine lactone (AHL) synthetase genes from members of the family Rhizobiaceae. The primer set successfully amplified AHL synthetase genes from pure cultures of AHL producers from Rhizobiaceae, but not from AHL producers out of the Rhizobiaceae family, indicating the specificity of this primer set to the Rhizobiaceae family. An inoculation experiment showed that the minimal detectable concentration of AHL producers from the soil was around 2.5 × 10(7) CFU/g soil. When applying to environmental samples, 7 and 14 different genotypes of AHL synthetase genes were identified in the rhizosphere of Glycine max and Vigna unguiculata, respectively, which revealed complicated and unknown AHL-based quorum-sensing networks in the rhizosphere. This is the first primer set that covers diverse AHL synthetase genes from different genera. It will be a useful culture-independent approach for better understanding of the ecological significance of QS in natural habitats.
