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

Recently, bacterial endophytes (BEs) have gained importance in the agricultural sector for their use as biocontrol agents to manage plant pathogens. Outbreak of the pine wilt disease (PWD) in Korea has led researchers to test the feasibility of BEs in controlling the pine wood nematode (PWN) Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. In this study, we have reported the diversity and biocontrol activity of BEs against the PWN. By employing a culture-dependent approach, 1,622 BEs were isolated from the needle, stem, and root tissues of P. densiflora, P. rigida, P. thunbergii, and P. koraiensis across 18 sampling sites in Korea. We classified 389 members based on 16S rDNA analysis and taxonomic binning, of which, 215 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were determined. Using Shannon's indices, diversity across the Pinus species and tissues was estimated to reveal the composition of BEs and their tissue-specific preferences. When their ethyl acetate crude extracts were analysed for biocontrol activity, 44 candidates with nematicidal activity were obtained. Among these, Stenotrophomonas and Bacillus sp. exhibited significant inhibitory activity against PWN during their developmental stages. Altogether, our study furnishes a basic comprehension of bacterial communities found in the Pinus species and highlights the potential of BEs as biocontrol agents to combat PWD.
