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

Salinity is a major abiotic stress threatening crop production. Root-derived bacteria (RDB) are hypothesized to play a role in enhancing plant adaptability to various stresses. However, it is still unclear whether and how plants build up specific RDB when challenged by salinity. In this study, we measured the composition and variation in the rhizosphere and endophyte bacteria of salt-sensitive (SSs) and salt-resistant (SRs) plants under soil conditions with/without salinity. The salt-induced RDB (both rhizobiomes and endophytes) were isolated to examine their effects on the physiological responses of SSs and SRs to salinity challenge. Moreover, we examined whether functional redundancy exists among salt-induced RDB in enhancing plant adaptability to salt stress. We observed that although SSs and SRs recruited distinct RDB and relevant functions when challenged by salinity, salt-induced recruitment of specific RDB led to a consistent growth promotion in plants regardless of their salinity tolerance capacities. Plants employed a species-specific strategy to recruit beneficial soil bacteria in the rhizosphere rather than in the endosphere. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the consortium, but not individual members of the salt-induced RDB, provided enduring resistance against salt stress. This study confirms the critical role of salt-induced RDB in enhancing plant adaptability to salt stress.
