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

Endophytic fungi have recently garnered significant attention as next-generation bioinoculants due to their plausible role in ameliorating abiotic and biotic stresses. This adaptation is achieved via various signalling molecules and mechanisms established by these symbionts with their hosts. The present study screened 61 endophytic isolates of culturable mycobiome associated with wheat variety PBW725 during their crop cycle. Three endophytic isolates exhibited a minimum reduction in their growth and maximum biomass production during the drought stress developed using polyethylene glycol 6000. Further, these isolates also exhibited plant growth promoting properties by virtue of the production of indole acetic acid, gibberellic acid and ammonia. These isolates also exhibited the propensity to solubilise phosphate and zinc, produce siderophores and further exhibit extracellular enzymatic activities, contributing to plants' adaptability to abiotic stresses. The best isolate amongst the three was #5TAKL-3a, identified as Penicillium citrinum based on multilocus phylogenetic analysis. The isolate as a bioinoculant enhances various biochemical and physiological properties in planta. Hence our studies indicate that Penicillium citrinum #5TAKL-3a is a potential candidate bioinoculant for field trials to improve the adaptability of the wheat plant under drought stress.
