Longitudinal transmission of bacterial and fungal communities from seed to seed in rice.
Article in Communications biology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 37 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
Vertical transmission of microbes is crucial for the persistence of host-associated microbial communities. Although vertical transmission of seed microbes has been reported from diverse plants, ecological mechanisms and dynamics of microbial communities from parent to progeny remain scarce. Here we reveal the veiled ecological mechanism governing transmission of bacterial and fungal communities in rice across two consecutive seasons. We identify 29 bacterial and 34 fungal members transmitted across generations. Abundance-based regression models allow to classify colonization types of the microbes. We find that they are late colonizers dominating each community at the ripening stage. Ecological models further show that the observed temporal colonization patterns are affected by niche change and neutrality. Source-sink modeling reveals that parental seeds and stem endosphere are major origins of progeny seed microbial communities. This study gives empirical evidence for ecological mechanism and dynamics of bacterial and fungal communities as an ecological continuum during seed-to-seed transmission.
