Silicon and potassium synergistically alleviate salt stress and enhance soil fertility, nutrition, and physiology of passion fruit seedlings.
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 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
Introduction: Yellow passion fruit ( Methods: The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse using a completely randomized 4 × 2 + 2 factorial design with five replicates. Four doses of silicic acid (1.26, 2.52, 3.78, and 5.04 g dm Results: The silicon-potassium combination reduced soil pH and electrical conductivity, while increasing the availability of P, K, Ca, Mg, S, Fe, Mn, Zn, and Cu. Foliar nutrient concentrations improved while leaf Na Discussion: Silicon and potassium acted synergistically to reduce soil and leaf salinity, improve nutrient availability, and enhance plant biochemical and physiological performance, leading to greater growth and biomass accumulation. The results support the combined application of silicon and potassium as an effective strategy to mitigate salt stress and promote the nutrition, physiology, and growth of yellow passion fruit seedlings under saline irrigation.
