Metagenomic analysis of endophytic bacteria in seed potato (
Article in Open life sciences, 2024. 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
To date, the association of potato tuber microbiota is poorly understood. In this study, the endophytic bacterial flora of seed potato tubers was identified and the diversity of healthy and unhealthy tubers was compared. Metagenomic DNA extracted from healthy and unhealthy samples of seed potato tubers was used for the analysis of microbial communities. Next generation sequencing of the ∼460 bp v3-v4 region of the 16S rRNA gene was carried out using the Illumina Miseq platform. The data were analysed using the Divisive Amplicon Denoising Algorithm 2 pipeline. Sequence analysis of the potato metagenome identified amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) assigned to 745 different taxa belonging to eight Phyla: Firmicutes (46.2%), Proteobacteria (36.9%), Bacteroidetes (1.8%), Actinobacteria (0.1%), Tenericutes (0.005%), Saccharibacteria (0.003%), Verrucomicrobiota (0.003%), and Acidobacteria (0.001%). In healthy seed potato tubers, 55-99% of ASVs belonged to Firmicutes, including
