The Rhizospheric Alkali-Halotolerant Bacillus sp. KhSb-159 Enhanced Growth Parameters of the Mung Bean Crop.
Article in Current microbiology, 2025. 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
Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) play a crucial role in enhancing plant growth through various direct and indirect mechanisms. In this investigation, we isolated a potential PGPR, Bacillus sp. KhSb-159, from the rhizosphere of Sorghum bicolor L. located at Kharaghoda, Little Rann of Kutch (LRK), Gujarat (India). The isolated Bacillus sp. KhSb-159 displayed distinctive characteristics, forming circular, sticky, opaque, moderate-sized colonies with brown pigmentation. Interestingly, this strain exhibited growth at an alkaline pH of 9, even in the presence of 1 M NaCl (w/v). Further analysis revealed its capacity to produce indole acetic acid (IAA), ammonia, siderophores, and the ability to solubilize phosphate. In addition, KhSb-159 showed extracellular enzyme secretion, including amylase, protease, and cellulase. Bacillus sp. strain KhSb-159 demonstrated its potential to enhance the growth of mung bean crops which is a significant agricultural application. The treated seeds exhibited improvements in various growth parameters such as shoot length, root length, plant biomass, number of leaves, number of roots, fresh weight of shoot, dry weight of shoot, fresh weight of root, dry weight of root, fresh weight of leaves, and dry weight of leaves. Overall, Bacillus sp. strain KhSb-159 would be a good choice for bioformulation in sustainable agriculture due to its diverse range of abilities. This study has implications for the advancement of eco-friendly farming methods and offers insightful information about using rhizobacterial strains to maximize plant growth.
