Systematic review and meta-analysis of the potential effects of endophytic bacteria Klebsiella on plant growth promotion and biocontrol of pathogens.
Synthesis in World journal of microbiology & biotechnology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Klebsiella is a bacterial genus widely recognized in the medical field but with underexplored potential in agriculture. This study employed a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate scientific articles on plant growth promotion effects associated with endophytic bacteria Klebsiella species. A total of 39 relevant studies, published between 2012 and 2024, were identified based on strict inclusion and exclusion criteria. The analysis revealed that Klebsiella sp., K. pneumoniae, and K. variicola are cosmopolitan species that have functional versatility in phytohormone production, nutrient solubilization, and pathogen control in agricultural systems in both tropical and temperate zones. The data showed a significant correlation between the use of Klebsiella sp. and plant growth, highlighting the positive impact of these species in controlling aggressive pathogens. These findings underscore the potential of Klebsiella as a biotechnological tool for sustainable agricultural practices, enhancing plant growth and reducing the reliance on chemical inputs. The study further emphasizes the need for future research to deepen genomic characterization and expand the agricultural applications of these bacteria.
