The involvement of organic acids in soil fertility, plant health and environment sustainability.
Review in Archives of microbiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 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
Increasing demand for safe food by an ever-growing human population emphasizes the urgency for increasing crop yields and reducing the losses caused by abiotic and biotic stresses; a partial solution to this problem is to develop a better understanding of plant-microbe interactions. Plant roots continuously release a wide range of compounds including organic acids in root exudates. These root exudates stimulate growth of specific microbial communities in the rhizosphere, which affect complex biological and physico-chemical interactions occurring between plant roots and the surrounding soil environment. In addition, organic acids are also released by different microbes and during decomposition of organic matter and plant residues in the soil. Interestingly, the available organic acids in the rhizosphere play crucial roles in various physio-chemical processes including the chemoattraction of microbes (both beneficial and pathogenic), mineralization and solubilization of complex minerals (P, K and Zn), biocontrol of phytopathogens, induction of systemic resistance, biogas formation, mitigation of abiotic stresses and, detoxification of metals and residual pesticides. Thus, organic acids play a significant role in the sustainable management of the soil ecosystem and in environmental sustainability. This review discusses the role of organic acids in the stimulation or enrichment of specific root-associated microbial communities and their effect on plant-microbe interactions at the root surface. In addition, the potential for root microbiome modification to enhance nutrient cycling and nutrient acquisition, and in amelioration of environmental stresses for increasing food production is discussed.
