Uncovering potential interspecies signaling factors in plant-derived mixed microbial culture.

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.
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
Microbes use signaling factors for intraspecies and interspecies communications. While many intraspecies signaling factors have been found and characterized, discovery of factors for interspecies communication is lagging behind. To facilitate the discovery of such factors, we explored the potential of a mixed microbial culture (MMC) derived from wheatgrass, in which heterogeneity of this microbial community might elicit signaling factors for interspecies communication. The stability of Wheatgrass MMC in terms of community structure and metabolic output was first characterized by 16S ribosomal RNA amplicon sequencing and liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS), respectively. In addition, detailed MS analyses led to the identification of 12-hydroxystearic acid (12-HSA) as one of the major metabolites produced by Wheatgrass MMC. Stereochemical analysis revealed that Wheatgrass MMC produces mostly the (R)-isomer, although a small amount of the (S)-isomer was also observed. Furthermore, 12-HSA was found to modulate planktonic growth and biofilm formation of various marine bacterial strains. The current study suggests that naturally derived MMCs could serve as a simple and reproducible platform to discover potential signaling factors for interspecies communication. In addition, the study indicates that hydroxylated long-chain fatty acids, such as 12-HSA, may constitute a new class of interspecies signaling factors.
