The possibility of using Serratia isolates for the production of biopreparations in the protection of plants against diseases and pests.
Review in Archives of microbiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The agriculture is extremely important for the life of human beings. Therefore, it is needed to control the enemies that destroy vast areas of crops causing great economic losses. Chemical pesticides were the option for many decades, but the damage that they cause to environment and human health led to the idea of changing the use of these for more sustainable options such as biopesticides as a biological control. Among microbial pesticides, Serratia species have been found as suitable options to apply against several pests or pathogens. Serratia species produce a wide range of secondary metabolites with several biological activities such as antifungal, antibacterial, and pesticides which can be used in sustainable agriculture. It has been reported that several Serratia species are able to suppress some crop diseases caused by Fusarium oxysporum, Rhizoctonia solani, Phytophthora parasitica, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Verticillium dahlia, and Phytophthora capsici among others. Therefore, they have been used as biocontrol agents in agriculture. In this review, we summarized the genus Serratia describing its history and development and the metabolites it secretes, which are responsible for their antibacterial and antifungal activity. We have analyzed the insecticide capacity of several Serratia species as well antifungal properties of Serratia species against most important crops' pathogens. In conclusion, the use of Serratia as a biological control agent against plant pathogens can be a good option for a sustainable agriculture. More work is needed to assess the safety of the isolated new strains and their effectiveness against pathogens in in vivo conditions.
