Decoding the microbial assembly and environmental drivers along the phyllosphere-rhizosphere continuum of leguminous green manure Astragalus sinicus.

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
Green manure crops are increasingly recognized not only for their contributions to soil fertility but also for their role in shaping plant-associated microbiome. Astragalus sinicus, a widely used leguminous green manure in East Asian paddy fields, harbors distinct microbial assemblages across plant compartments, yet the ecological processes driving microbiome assembly along its phyllosphere-rhizosphere continuum remain unclear. In this study, we profiled microbiome composition across the rhizospheric, phyllospheric, and soil compartments of A. sinicus using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing targeting the region south of the Yangtze River, analyzing 315 samples collected from seven rice-growing regions. We found that Proteobacteria predominated all sampled compartments, with Mesorhizobium (75.85-96.93%) constituting the predominant taxon in the root microbiome. The leaf microbiome showed higher variability, dominated by Vibrionimonas (0.31-46.6%), Pantoea (0.71-46.61%), Pseudomonas (0.07-24.6%) and Bradyrhizobium (0.06-8.45%). Co-occurrence networks revealed a distinct gradient, including expansive yet weakly connected soil networks, moderately sized and highly modular leaf networks, and compact, highly robust root consortia, delineating a shift from environmentally driven complexity to host-filtered stability. Root and leaf microbiome assembly was primarily governed by stochastic processes (- 2 < β-NTI < 2, NCM r
