Bacterial communities associated with Zeldia punctata, a bacterivorous soil-borne nematode.

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
Soil inhabiting organisms are important determinants of agroecosystem productivity. Understanding the composition, the abundance, and the type of interactions established by soil microorganisms is therefore crucial to design strategies to improve agricultural practices and agroecosystem management. In this study, we collected Zeldia punctata nematodes in maize fields in South Africa and profiled their associated bacterial communities using next-generation sequencing. We observed that Z. punctata nematodes establish associations with ecologically diverse bacterial species. The most abundant species observed are Pseudomonas syringae, a phytopathogenic bacterial complex; Lactobacillus paraplantarum, a broadly distributed bacterial species that is present in soils, water bodies, and animal intestinal tracts and has certain probiotic and antimicrobial properties; and Melissococcus plutonius, a serious pathogenic bacterial species that causes brood disease in honeybees. Our study contributes to a better understanding of the soil bacterial communities associated with nematodes in maize agricultural soils in South Africa and unravels the presence of diverse detrimental and beneficial nematode-associated bacteria.
