Selective cell lysis pressure on rare and abundant prokaryotic taxa across a shelf-to-slope continuum in the Northern South China Sea.
Article in Applied and environmental microbiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
importanceVirus-induced host lysis contributes up to 40% of total prokaryotic mortality and plays crucial roles in shaping microbial composition and diversity in the ocean. Nonetheless, what taxon-specific cell lysis is caused by viruses remains to be studied. The present study, therefore, examined the taxon-specific cell lysis and estimated its contribution to the variations in the rare and abundant microbial taxa. The results demonstrate that taxon-specific mortality differed in surface and bottom of the coastal environment. In addition, active rare taxa are more susceptible to heightened lytic pressure and suggested the importance of viral lysis in regulating the microbial community composition. These results improve our understanding of bottom-up (abiotic environmental variables) and top-down (viral lysis) controls contributing to microbial community assembly in the ocean.
