Use of Electron Microscopy for the Detection of Contaminant Endophytic Bacteria In Vitro.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 success of in vitro cultivation, particularly for micropropagation purposes, depends on the efficient control of contaminants. In this context, the sterilization of plant material constitutes a fundamental step in initiating cultures. Microbial contaminants can be found either on the surface (epiphyte) or inside plant explants (endophyte). However, the latter is generally challenging to detect and may not always be eradicated through surface sterilization alone. Endophyte contaminants, such as bacteria, can persist within plant material over several cultivation cycles, potentially interfering with or inhibiting in vitro establishment, growth, or recovery of cryopreserved materials. Therefore, microscopy techniques, such as electron microscopy, can yield valuable insights into bacterial endophytes' localization, tissue colonization patterns, and functions in in vitro plant culture. This information is essential for adopting effective strategies for eliminating, preventing, or harmonious coexistence with contaminants.
