Can We Estimate Functionality of Soil Microbial Communities from Structure-Derived Predictions? A Reality Test in Agricultural Soils.
Article in Microbiology spectrum, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
Computational approaches that link bacterial 16S rRNA gene amplicon data to functional genes based on prokaryotic reference genomes have emerged. This study aims to validate or refute the applicability of the functional gene prediction tools for assessment and comparison of community functionality among experimental treatments, inducing either fast or slow responses in rhizosphere microbial community composition and function. Rhizosphere samples of wheat and barley were collected in two consecutive years at active and mature growth phases from organic and conventional farming plots with ambient or future-climate treatments of the Global Change Experimental Facility. Bacterial community composition was determined by 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing, and the activities of five extracellular enzymes involved in carbon (β-glucosidases, cellobiohydrolase, and xylosidase), nitrogen (
