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

Introduction: Specific microorganisms and metabolites in soil play key roles in regulating organismal behavior. Currently, the effects of different preceding crops on the rhizosphere soil quality of flue-cured tobacco remain unclear. Methods: Four treatments were compared in the study: fallow + tobacco (CK), maize + tobacco (T1), rapeseed + tobacco (T2), and wheat + tobacco (T3). Results and discussion: Results showed that preceding crops significantly enhanced soil nutrient levels and improved tobacco growth by altering rhizosphere metabolites and microbial community structure. Previous cultivation of maize and rapeseed significantly promoted tobacco growth, rapeseed and wheat cultivation enhanced the diversity of soil bacterial communities, and notably decreased the abundance of urea-degrading bacteria. In contrast, the preceding crop of maize reduced plant pathogenic fungi and promoted positive microbial interactions. Metabolomics analysis showed that different preceding crops altered lipids, organic acids, flavonoids, alkaloids, and terpenoids, enhancing secondary metabolite synthesis pathways in soil. Preceding crops regulated rhizosphere metabolites which potentially participated in soil carbon and nitrogen cycling, balancing soil nutrients, and improving tobacco yield. Overall, the three preceding crops altered the composition and function of metabolites and microbial community structures in rhizosphere soil, thereby increased soil nutrient concentration. Both maize and rapeseed cultivation significantly boosted tobacco growth and biomass. These findings offer new insights into the potential interactions between rhizosphere metabolites and microbial communities and strategies of comprehensively regulating tobacco growth.
