Effect of saline and freshwater rotational irrigation on the microenvironment and yield of tomato soil.
Article in BMC plant biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This study aimed to elucidate the effects of saline-fresh water rotational irrigation on the root microenvironment of tomatoes, which is crucial for optimizing the saline water irrigation strategies. A two-season tomato experiment was conducted in a greenhouse in southern Xinjiang, with three saline-fresh water rotational irrigation treatments (W1, W2, W3) and a freshwater control (CK). The main focus was on the effects of saline-fresh water rotation irrigation on the physicochemical properties, enzyme activity, and microbial community structure of the tomato rhizosphere soil. The implementation of saline-fresh water rotational irrigation strategies was an effective means of maintaining the abundance and diversity of beneficial microorganisms in the tomato rhizosphere soil, positively impacting soil nutrient availability and enzyme activity. Soil enzyme activity and nutrient content showed a significant increase in the W1 and W3 treatments compared to the control treatment. The W3 treatment significantly improved the soil microenvironment and conserved freshwater, while ensuring no significant yield reduction compared with the CK treatment. The relative abundance of Actinobacteriota was reduced to varying degrees in different saline-fresh water rotation irrigation treatments, while that of beneficial microorganisms such as Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, Verrucomicrobiota, and Bacillus increased. In autumn, cold-loving bacteria such as Paenisporosarcina were prominent. These beneficial microorganisms enhance tomatoes' ability to resist saline-alkali stress. The W3 treatment demonstrated a stronger ability to recruit beneficial microorganisms, likely due to host specificity and higher productivity. Therefore, the W3 treatment is recommended as an effective saline water application method for improving the root microenvironment of greenhouse tomatoes.
