1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Beneficial interactions between plants and rhizosphere microorganisms are key determinants of plant health with the potential to enhance the sustainability of agricultural practices. However, pinpointing the mechanisms that determine plant disease protection is often difficult due to the complexity of microbial and plant-microbe interactions and their links with the plant's own defense systems. Here, we found that the resistance level of different banana varieties was correlated with the plant's ability to stimulate specific fungal taxa in the rhizosphere that are able to inhibit the Foc TR4 pathogen. These fungal taxa included members of the genera Trichoderma and Penicillium, and their growth was stimulated by plant exudates such as shikimic acid, D-(-)-ribofuranose, and propylene glycol. Furthermore, amending soils with these metabolites enhanced the resistance of a susceptible variety to Foc TR4, with no effect observed for the resistant variety. In total, our findings suggest that the ability to recruit pathogen-suppressive fungal taxa may be an important component in determining the level of pathogen resistance exhibited by plant varieties. This perspective opens up new avenues for improving plant health, in which both plant and associated microbial properties are considered.
