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

Plant-beneficial Pseudomonas and Bacillus have been extensively studied and applied in biocontrol of plant diseases. However, there is less known about their interaction within two-strain synthetic communities (SynCom). Our study revealed that Pseudomonas protegens Pf-5 inhibits the growth of several Bacillus species, including Bacillus velezensis. We established a two-strain combination of Pf-5 and DMW1 to elucidate the interaction. In this combination, pyoluteorin conferred the competitive advantage of Pf-5. Noteworthy, pyoluteorin-deficient Pf-5 cooperated with DMW1 in biofilm formation, production of metabolites, root colonization, tomato bacterial wilt disease control, as well as in cooperation with beneficial bacteria in tomato rhizosphere, such as Bacillus spp. RNA-seq analysis and RT-qPCR also proved the pyoluteorin-deficient Pf-5 mutant improved cell motility and metabolite production. This study suggests that the cooperative effect of Bacillus-Pseudomonas consortia depends on the balance of pyoluteorin. Our finding needs to be considered in developing efficient SynCom in sustainable agriculture.
