Bacteria, Protists, and Fungi May Hold Clues of Seamount Impact on Diversity and Connectivity of Deep-Sea Pelagic Communities.
Article in Frontiers in microbiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
The topography and hydrography around seamounts have a strong influence on plankton biogeography. The intrinsic properties of various biological taxa inherently also shape their distribution. Therefore, it is hypothesized that different pelagic groups respond differently to effects of seamounts regarding their distribution and connectivity patterns. Herein, bacterial, protist, and fungal diversity was investigated across the water column around the Kocebu Guyot in the western Pacific Ocean. A higher connectivity was detected for bacteria than for protists and an extremely low connectivity for fungi, which might be attributed to parasitic and commensal interactions of many fungal taxa. The seamount enhanced the vertical connectivity of bacterial and protist communities, but significantly reduced protist connectivity along horizontal dimension. Such effects provide ecological opportunities for eukaryotic adaption and diversification. All the bacterial, protist, and fungal communities were more strongly affected by deterministic than stochastic processes. Drift appeared to have a more significant role in influencing the fungal community than other groups. Our study indicates the impact of seamounts on the pelagic community distribution and connectivity and highlights the mechanism of horizontally restricted dispersal combined with vertical mixing, which promotes the diversification of eukaryotic life.
