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

Exploration of community structures, habitations, and potential plant growth promoting (PGP) attributes of endophytic bacteria through next generation sequencing (NGS) is a prerequisite to culturing PGP endophytic bacteria for their application in sustainable agriculture. The present study unravels the taxonomic abundance and diversity of endophytic bacteria inhabiting in vitro grown root, shoot and callus tissues of two aromatic rice cultivars through 16S rRNA gene-based Illumina NGS. Wide variability in the number of bacterial operational taxonomic units (OTUs) and genera was observed between the two samples of the root (55, 14 vs. 310, 76) and shoot (26, 12 vs. 276, 73) but not between the two callus samples (251, 61 vs. 259, 51), indicating tissue-specific and genotype-dependent bacterial community distribution in rice plant, even under similar gnotobiotic growth conditions. Sizes of core bacteriomes of the selected two rice genotypes varied from 1 to 15 genera, with Sphingomonas being the only genus detected in all six samples. Functional annotation, based upon the abundance of bacterial OTUs, revealed the presence of several PGP trait-related genes having variable relative abundance in tissue-specific and genotype-dependent manners. In silico study also documented a higher abundance of certain genes in the same biochemical pathway, such as nitrogen fixation, phosphate solubilization and indole acetic acid production; implying their crucial roles in the biosynthesis of metabolites leading to PGP. New insights on utilizing callus cultures for isolation of PGP endophytes aiming to improve rice crop productivity are presented, owing to constancy in bacterial OTUs and genera in callus tissues of both the rice genotypes.
