Genome-resolved analysis of Serratia marcescens strain SMTT infers niche specialization as a hydrocarbon-degrader.
Article in DNA research : an international journal for rapid publication of reports on genes and genomes, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Bacteria that are chronically exposed to high levels of pollutants demonstrate genomic and corresponding metabolic diversity that complement their strategies for adaptation to hydrocarbon-rich environments. Whole genome sequencing was carried out to infer functional traits of Serratia marcescens strain SMTT recovered from soil contaminated with crude oil. The genome size (Mb) was 5,013,981 with a total gene count of 4,842. Comparative analyses with carefully selected S. marcescens strains, 2 of which are associated with contaminated soil, show conservation of central metabolic pathways in addition to intra-specific genetic diversity and metabolic flexibility. Genome comparisons also indicated an enrichment of genes associated with multidrug resistance and efflux pumps for SMTT. The SMTT genome contained genes that enable the catabolism of aromatic compounds via the protocatechuate para-degradation pathway, in addition to meta-cleavage of catechol (meta-cleavage pathway II); gene enrichment for aromatic compound degradation was markedly higher for SMTT compared to the other S. marcescens strains analysed. Our data presents a valuable genetic inventory for future studies on strains of S. marcescens and provides insights into those genomic features of SMTT with industrial potential.
