Fluroxypyr Inhibits Maize Growth by Disturbing the Diversity of the Endophytic Bacterial Communities in Maize Roots.
Article in Microorganisms, 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
Fluroxypyr (4-amino-3,5-dichloro-6-fluoro-2-pyridyloxyacetic acid) is a widely used herbicide sprayed on crops worldwide. The effects of fluroxypyr on maize growth and the soil microbial community structure have not been reported. In this study, the impacts of fluroxypyr on maize growth and the bacterial community structure in endophytes and rhizospheric/non-rhizospheric soils were evaluated. We found that the community structures of the non-rhizospheric and rhizospheric soils were similar. The alpha diversity showed that the richness of the endophytic communities in the mature maize roots was reduced after herbicide application. No statistically significant differences were observed between the fluroxypyr-treated and control soils in either the non-rhizospheric or rhizospheric soils. However, the composition of the endophytic bacterial community structure suggested that fluroxypyr led to a 59.1% reduction in the abundance of
