Case study of a rhizosphere microbiome assay on a bamboo rhizome with excessive shoots.
Article in Forestry research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Young moso bamboo shoots are a popular seasonal food and an important source of income for farmers, with value for cultivation estimated at $30,000 per hectare. Bamboo also has great environmental importance and its unique physiology is of scientific interest. A rare and valuable phenomenon has recently appeared where a large number of adjacent buds within a single moso bamboo rhizome have grown into shoots. Although of practical importance for the production of edible shoots, such occurrences have not been scientifically studied, due to their rarity. Analysis of collected reports from enhanced shoot production events in China showed no evidence that enhanced shoot development was heritable. We report the analysis of the rhizosphere microbiome from a rhizome with 18 shoots, compared to rhizomes having one or no shoots as controls. The community of prokaryotes, but not fungi, correlated with the shoot number.
