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

In a preliminary plant-based microbiome study, diverse bacterial taxa were identified from different medicinal plants using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Based on initial antimicrobial screening, eight (8) bacterial endophytes in six (6) different genera, Streptomyces, Pseudomonas, Enterobacter, Bacillus, Arthrobacter, and Delftia, from four important medicinal plants Dodonaea viscosa, Fagonia indica, Caralluma tuberculata, and Calendula arvensis were selected for further analyses. Antimicrobial assays revealed that Pseudomonas taiwanensis MOSEL-RD23 has strong anti-Phytophthora activity. Volatiles produced by P. taiwanensis MOSEL-RD23and Bacillus flexus MOSEL-MIC5 inhibited the growth of Phytophthora parasitica by more than 80%. Ethyl acetate extracts of Streptomyces alboniger MOSEL-RD3, P. taiwanensis MOSEL-RD23, Enterobacter hormaechei MOSEL-FLS1, and Bacillus tequilensis MOSEL-FLS3, and Delftia lacustris MB322 displayed high potency against P. parasitica. All these bacterial extracts showed strong inhibition of more than 80% inhibition in vitro against P. parasitica at different concentrations (4-400 µg/mL). Bacterial extracts showing strong antimicrobial activity were selected for bioactivity-driven fractionation and showed anti-Phytophthoral activity in multiple fractions and different peaks observed in UV-Vis spectroscopy. In the detached-leaf assay against P. parasitica on tobacco, 1% ethyl acetate bacterial extract of S. alboniger MOSEL-RD3, P. taiwanensis MOSEL-RD23, E. hormaechei MOSEL-FLS1, B. tequilensis MOSEL-FLS3, and D. lacustris MB322 reduced lesion sizes and lesion frequencies caused by P. parasitica by 68 to 81%. Overall, P. taiwanensis MOSEL-RD23 showed positive activities for all the assays. Analyzing the potential of bacterial endophytes as biological control agents can potentially lead to the formulation of broad-spectrum biopesticides for the sustainable production of crops.
