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

Rhizobacteria in the genus Pseudomonas can enhance plant resistance to a range of pathogens and herbivores. However, resistance to these different classes of plant antagonists is mediated by different molecular mechanisms, and the extent to which induced systemic resistance by Pseudomonas can simultaneously protect plants against both pathogens and herbivores remains unclear. We screened 12 root-colonizing Pseudomonas strains to assess their ability to induce resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana against a foliar pathogen (Pseudomonas syringae DC3000) and a chewing herbivore (Spodoptera littoralis). None of our 12 strains increased plant resistance against herbivory; however, four strains enhanced pathogen resistance, and one of these (Pseudomonas strain P97-38) also made plants more susceptible to herbivory. Phytohormone analyses revealed stronger salicylic acid induction in plants colonized by P97-38 (versus controls) following subsequent pathogen infection but weaker induction of jasmonic acid (JA)-mediated defenses following herbivory. We found no effects of P97-38 inoculation on herbivore-relevant nutrients such as sugars and protein, suggesting that the observed enhancement of susceptibility to
