Comparative genomics and evolutionary insights into zeaxanthin biosynthesis in two novel Flavobacterium species.
Article in BMC 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
backgroundDuring the screening of pigment-producing microbes from domestic sources, 102 yellow- or orange-pigmented bacteria were isolated. Among these, two novel Flavobacterium strains, F. sedimentum SUN046
resultsBoth strains utilized the mevalonic acid (MVA) pathway and possessed the crt gene cluster (crtB, crtI, crtY/crtY
conclusionThese findings suggest that both strains represent valuable new resources for zeaxanthin production and provide foundational insights for biotechnological applications involving the genus Flavobacterium, highlighting the genetic and evolutionary complexity of microbial carotenoid biosynthesis.
