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

Wilt disease caused by Fusarium solani, a soil-borne plant pathogenic fungus, is a serious disease in tomato causing economic losses. In the present study, among the nine isolates of Chaetomium globosum Kunze (Chg1-Chg9), screened against F. solani No. Fs-1, Chg2 exhibited the maximum inhibition (49.2 %), followed by the isolates Chg6 (47.4%) and Chg1 (46.3%) in dual culture. Further, the crude secondary metabolites from these three isolates showed maximum reduction of the mycelial growth of Fs-1 compared to control. Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of the metabolites from Chg2 revealed the presence of major compounds, viz., benzothiazole, 2-(2-hydroxyethylthio) (7.51%); 9,12,15- octadecatrienoic acid, 2,3-bis[(trimethylsilyl)oxy] propyl ester (3.13%); and hexadecanoic acid, 1- (hydroxymethyl)-1,2-ethanediyl ester (2.69%). Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy revealed the presence of alcohol, secondary amine, aliphatic primary amine, carboxylic acid, allene, conjugated ketone, imine/oxime, sulphate, and halo compound groups with a weak to strong range of intensity. Pure compound of benzothiazole @ 5000 ppm exhibited higher antagonistic activity of Fs-1which decreased at lower concentration. In pot culture experiment, dipping tomato seedlings cv. PKM1 in 2% ethyl acetate-fractionated biomolecules of Chg2 recorded a minimum disease incidence of 20.0%, whereas seedlings dipped in the culture filtrate of Chg2 showed a disease incidence of 26.6% compared to control (86.6%). Besides, these seedlings treated with the culture filtrate showed the highest plant height of 37.68 cm and the maximum number of leaves and flowers (39.6 and 5.48, respectively), followed by those treated with the biomolecules of Chg2 (C. globosum) and the culture filtrate of T. asperellum. The results revealed that the antifungal efficacy of C. globosum Chg2 is due to the presence of antimicrobial metabolites including benzothiazole. Exploring the use of this novel antifungal compound in the management of plant diseases is highly warranted.
