Complete genome analysis and biological characterization of phage vB_Bsu_hmny2 infecting Bacillus subtilis.

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
Bacillus subtilis, a key microorganism in food fermentation, is frequently compromised by phage contamination, which can result in fermentation failures. Therefore, understanding and controlling B. subtilis-infecting phages is critical for enhancing fermentation stability. In this study, we characterized a novel lytic B. subtilis phage, vB_Bsu_hmny2, isolated from sewage collected at a seafood market in Qingdao, China. This phage has a linear double-stranded DNA genome of 18,762 bp with 25 open reading frames (ORFs), the functions of 17 of which were predicted. Transmission electron microscopy examination revealed that the phage exhibits podovirus morphology, with a head measuring 40 ± 10 nm in diameter and a short tail measuring 20 ± 6 nm in length. vB_Bsu_hmny2 exhibited stability across a range of temperatures and pH levels and was found to belong to the species Beecentumtrevirus Nf in the family Salasmaviridae. vB_Bsu_hmny2 is the first phage of the genus Beecentumtrevirus to undergo physiological characterization. This research addresses a gap in the functional analysis of phages, providing valuable insights for phage control in industrial fermentation processes.
