Rhizosheath Characteristics of Annual Ephemerals in Sandy and Gravelly Habitats of Northern Xinjiang Deserts.
Article in Ecology and evolution, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The rhizosheath is an important root trait that plays a critical role in enhancing plant uptake of water and nutrients, contributing to the adaptation of plant species to specific environmental conditions. This study investigates the formation and characteristics of rhizosheaths in annual ephemeral plants in the desert environment of northern Xinjiang through systematic field surveys and comparative analyses. Key findings include: (1) A total of 67 annual ephemeral species were surveyed, with 15 species exhibiting distinct rhizosheath structures, predominantly from the Poaceae family. (2) Among the rhizosheath-forming species, 11 were identified in sandy habitats, while 7 were found in gravelly habitats. Notably, three species (
