The Significance of Mycoparasitism by Streptomyces sp. MBCN152-1 for Its Biocontrol Activity against Alternaria brassicicola.
Article in Microbes and environments, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Streptomyces sp. strain MBCN152-1, isolated from cabbage, has potential as a biocontrol agent for Alternaria brassicicola on cabbage seedlings. The present study examined its mode of action. Light microscopy showed that appressorium formation by A. brassicicola was significantly suppressed on cabbage seedlings bacterized with MBCN152-1. Furthermore, scanning electron microscopy revealed that the mycelia of MBCN152-1, which were epiphytically growing on the cotyledon leaves of cabbage seedlings, intensively coiled around the germinating conidia of A. brassicicola. In vitro co-culture experiments demonstrated that MBCN152-1 is an aggressive mycoparasite of A. brassicicola, but not of A. brassicae or Colletotrichum higginsianum. Biocontrol experiments indicated that MBCN152-1 did not control diseases caused by A. brassicae or C. higginsianum. These results suggest that mycoparasitism is the primary mode of action for MBCN152-1. This is the first study to clearly demonstrate the significance of mycoparasitism in the biocontrol efficacy of endophytic Streptomyces.
