The change of bacterial community structure helped
Article in Frontiers in plant science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: Drought stress poses a significant threat to plant growth and development, thereby adversely impacting agricultural productivity and ecosystem stability. In recent years, increasing attention has been given to plant-microorganism interactions as a promising strategy to enhance plant resistance to abiotic stresses. Methods: In this study, we evaluated the effects of microbial inoculation on the growth, photosynthetic performance, nutrient uptake, and root morphology of Salvia miltiorrhiza under drought stress. Microbial community composition was also analyzed to explore the interaction between drought stress and rhizosphere microbiota. Results: Our results demonstrated that microbial inoculation significantly alleviated the adverse effects of drought stress on S. miltiorrhiza. Inoculated plants exhibited a 3.61-fold increase in biomass compared to the uninoculated controls. Chlorophyll content increased by approximately 85.45%, while nitrogen and potassium contents rose by 27.77% and 33.27%, respectively. Furthermore, microbial inoculation improved root system architecture. Drought stress altered the rhizosphere microbial community, with the relative abundance of Enterobacteriaceae increasing by 5.50% and Brucellaceae decreasing by 2.76%. Discussion: These findings suggest that microorganisms can enhance plant drought resistance through multiple mechanisms, including the promotion of growth, nutrient absorption, and root development, as well as modulation of microbial community structure. This study provides a theoretical foundation and practical insights for the development of microbial-based strategies to improve plant resilience under drought conditions.
