Microbiome homeostasis on rice leaves is regulated by a precursor molecule of lignin biosynthesis.
Article in Nature communications, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 85 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
In terrestrial ecosystems, plant leaves provide the largest biological habitat for highly diverse microbial communities, known as the phyllosphere microbiota. However, the underlying mechanisms of host-driven assembly of these ubiquitous communities remain largely elusive. Here, we conduct a large-scale and in-depth assessment of the rice phyllosphere microbiome aimed at identifying specific host-microbe links. A genome-wide association study reveals a strong association between the plant genotype and members of four bacterial orders, Pseudomonadales, Burkholderiales, Enterobacterales and Xanthomonadales. Some of the associations are specific to a distinct host genomic locus, pathway or even gene. The compound 4-hydroxycinnamic acid (4-HCA) is identified as the main driver for enrichment of bacteria belonging to Pseudomonadales. 4-HCA can be synthesized by the host plant's OsPAL02 from the phenylpropanoid biosynthesis pathway. A knockout mutant of OsPAL02 results in reduced Pseudomonadales abundance, dysbiosis of the phyllosphere microbiota and consequently higher susceptibility of rice plants to disease. Our study provides a direct link between a specific plant metabolite and rice phyllosphere homeostasis opening possibilities for new breeding strategies.
