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

The primary objective of this study was to assess the growth-promoting potential of Colletotrichum sp. as a broad-spectrum plant inoculant and to investigate its applicability beyond its natural host range. Out of ten endophytes isolated from Ocimum basilicum, only four were reported for IAA production and among them, Colletotrichum sp. was chosen for further investigation due to its higher IAA production. Highest production of IAA was observed by providing Czapek dox broth with dextrose as carbon source, ammonium sulphate as nitrogen source at pH 7 and 32 °C. The crude fungal extract from Colletotrichum sp. was tested for its impact on rice plants under different application methods (soil drenching, foliar spraying, and seed immersion). Seed immersion treatment showed a notable effect on the growth of rice seedlings in contrast to soil drenching and foliar spraying. Plant growth assay with fungal elicitor treatment of plantlets produced by shoot culture, supplementing with 0.04 mL of culture filtrate per 30 mL media has significant impact on induction of rooting and overall biomass in Ocimum tenuiflorum as compared to untreated control plants. High-resolution liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (HR-LCMS) analysis of the fungal extract revealed the production of 3-indoleacetic acid and related intermediates.
