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

Verticilllium wilt of cotton is a devastating soil-borne disease, which is caused by Verticillium dahliae Kleb. Bacillus velezensis strain AL7 was isolated from cotton soil. This strain efficiently inhibited the growth of V. dahliae. But the mechanism of the biocontrol strain AL7 remains poorly understood. To understand the possible genetic determinants for biocontrol traits of this strain, we conducted phenotypic, phylogenetic and comparative genomics analysis. Phenotypic analysis showed that strain AL7 exhibited broad-spectrum antifungal activities. We determined that the whole genome sequence of B. velezensis AL7 is a single circular chromosome that is 3.89 Mb in size. The distribution of putative gene clusters that could benefit to biocontrol activities was found in the genome. Phylogenetic analysis of Bacillus strains by using single core-genome clearly placed strain AL7 into the B. velezensis. Meantime, we performed comparative analyses on four Bacillus strains and observed subtle differences in their genome sequences. In addition, comparative genomics analysis showed that the core genomes of B. velezensis are more abundant in genes relevant to secondary metabolism compared with B. subtilis strains. Single mutant in the biosynthetic genes of fengycin demonstrated the function of fengycin in the antagonistic activity of B. velezensis AL7. Here, we report a new biocontrol bacterium B. velezensis AL7 and fengycin contribute to the biocontrol efficacy of the strain. The results showed in the research further sustain the potential of B. velezensis AL7 for application in agriculture production and may be a worthy biocontrol strain for further studies.
