1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Beneficial rhizosphere microorganisms are widely employed to shield crops from underground pathogen infections. In this study, we challenge this conventional idea by employing rhizosphere soil bacteria to safeguard kiwi plants against the above-ground canker, caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa). Microbiome comparisons were conducted in different resistant cultivars Actinidia chinensis var. deliciosa 'Hayward' and A. chinensis var. chinensis 'Hongyang'. Our findings reveal the most notable disparity in the rhizosphere soil microbiome, with the Flavobacterium significantly enriched in the rhizosphere soil of more resistant cultivar, 'Hayward'. We isolated Flavobacterium isolates and observed their efficacy in preventing Psa infection, which is further confirmed in field trial by using a representative strain Flavobacterium soyae F55. Furthermore, undescribed gene clusters responsible for antimicrobial metabolite biosynthesis were identified in F. soyae F55, and F. soyae F55 growth was evidently promoted by the root exudates of 'Hayward'. The results underscore the potential of beneficial rhizosphere soil bacteria in protection against above-ground disease.
