Comparative Metagenomic Analysis of Seed Endobiome of Domesticated and Wild Finger Millet Species (Eleusine spp.): Unveiling Microbial Diversity and Composition.

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
Domestication, which involves selective breeding, modern agricultural practices, and specific growing conditions, can influence the microbial and endophytic communities in crop plants. In this study, we examined the microbial diversity and community composition in the seeds of wild and domesticated finger millet species. We employed a metagenomic approach to investigate the seed microbial diversity and community composition of wild (Eleusine africana) and domesticated finger millet species (Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn) grown in the same habitat. While our findings indicated no significant change in seed endobiome diversity due to domestication, there were differences in microbial community composition between wild and domesticated species. Seeds of domesticated species had higher relative abundance of certain bacterial genera including Helicobacter, Akkermansia, Streptococcus, Bacteroides, and Pseudomonas, whereas seeds of wild species had higher relative abundance of unclassified Streptophyta. The seed-associated microbiota also varied among domesticated finger millet accessions. Co-occurrence network analysis revealed a strong relationship between bacteria and fungi in domesticated compared to wild species. We discuss the results obtained in the larger context of the importance of seed endobiome and how domestication processes in crop plants may have impacted the seed endobiome diversity, composition, and function compared to their wild counterparts.
