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

Kosakonia radicincitans GXGL-4A, a free-living nitrogen-fixing (NF) bacterial strain isolated from maize (Zea mays L.) roots was found to have ability to degrade aromatic hydrocarbons. In this study, we describe the main morphological characteristics of bacterium, aromatic hydrocarbon-degrading capability, and the complete genome of K. radicincitans GXGL-4A. The genome is consisted of only one 5,687,681 bp linear chromosome with a G + C content of 53.96%. The strain has two genetically distinct nitrogenase systems, one based on molybdenum (Mo) similar to nitrogenase isolated from a wide range of nitrogen-fixing organisms, and the other contains iron (Fe). The differences in transcriptional level of several important nitrogen fixation (nif) genes between LB (nitrogen-rich, NR) and A15 nitrogen-free (nitrogen-limited, NL) culture conditions were detected using Real-time Quantitative Reverse Transcription PCR (qRT-PCR). The bacterial cells of GXGL-4A can grow well in LB liquid medium containing 1% toluene, ethylbenzene or xylene, suggesting a good resistance to the tested aromatic hydrocarbons. The results of GC-MS analysis showed that K. radicincitans GXGL-4A has a good capability to degrade toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (TEX). Completion of the genome sequencing will no doubt contribute to the deep exploration and comprehensive utilization of this NF bacterium in sustainable agriculture and bioremediation of aromatic pollutants.
