Genome-resolved metagenomics identifies the particular genetic traits of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria in agricultural soil.
Article in ISME communications, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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
Bacteria play a key role in phosphate solubilization, but related genome-centric research on agricultural microbiomes is scarce. Here, we reconstructed 472 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) covering agricultural soils from six long-term field trials across China. A total of 79 MAGs contained gcd encoding quinoprotein glucose dehydrogenase (GCD), which is the key biomarker for phosphate solubilization. Our findings showed that all GCD-MAGs represent potentially novel species, with gcd copy numbers varying from 1 to 10 per genome. Large genome size, a high ratio of glycosyl hydrolase genes, and increased capacity for carbohydrate utilization were specific traits of GCD-MAGs. Notably, the gcd copy number showed a significant and positive correlation with genome size. Generated using a machine learning approach, our findings were validated in a dataset of 692 genotypes covering the 18 bacterial families to which the 79 GCD-MAGs belong. Our results improve the knowledge of both the diversity and the genetic composition of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria. In particular, they reveal a genomic link between phosphate solubilization capacity and increased potential for carbohydrate metabolism, which may accelerate targeted engineering and improve management practices for sustainable agriculture.
