1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundModern agriculture is based on the application of synthetic agrochemicals to control multiple abiotic and biotic stresses. Nevertheless, owing to their negative effect on ecosystems and human health, their application is increasingly restricted. The use of plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) as well as biological control agents (BCAs) represents a sustainable alternative to chemical pesticides and fertilizers. Bacillus velezensis 83 (Bv83) has been described as a BCA against several fungal phytopathogens.

resultsIn this work, we further study the molecular mechanisms behind the biological control capabilities of Bv83 using the pathosystem Arabidopsis thaliana-Botrytis cinerea. We used an in vitro system that can determine whether Bv83 can protect the plant triggering induced systemic resistance to B. cinerea. This protection was mediated by the accumulation of acetoin and the activation of phytohormone-induced mechanisms, in particular, jasmonic acid- and salicylic acid (SA)-mediated defense responses. Remarkably, we determined that in SA-impaired mutants, acetoin biosynthesis was severely reduced.

conclusionOur work provides valuable information that advances our understanding of the biostimulant effect induced by the BCA Bv83. © 2025 The Author(s). Pest Management Science published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd on behalf of Society of Chemical Industry.
