Microbial Inoculation Strategies for Optimal Cherry Tomato Production.

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 use of microorganisms is a promising technique in agriculture to provide greater water and nutrient efficiency for crops. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of microbial inoculation on plant growth, fruit yield and fruit quality of cherry tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum var. cerasiforme) in a protected environment. The experiment was arranged in a randomized block design with three treatments: (i) inoculation with Bacillus subtilis ATCC 23858; (ii) inoculation with Burkholderia seminalis TC3.4.2R3; and (iii) non-inoculation, with eight replications. The data were subjected to ANOVA using the F-test followed by the Tukey test (p < 0.05) and multivariate statistical analysis for principal component analysis. B. seminalis led to a higher germination rate, increased fruit yield (FY) by 4.3% and soluble solids content (SSC) of 12.33% compared to the non-inoculation treatment. B. subtilis increased plant height (PH) and root mass, FY by 9.56% and SSC by 9.25%. Inoculation increased the mechanical resistance of fruits in terms of compression and puncture. The results of this work indicated that the initial growth of cherry tomatoes was increased by inoculation with B. subtilis and B. seminalis, bringing new possibilities for the sustainable production of this crop since inoculation promoted plant growth, increased FY and improved fruit quality. The study suggests that inoculation with specific strains of B. subtilis and B. seminalis can be beneficial for cherry tomato cultivation in protected environments, highlighting the use of microorganisms in agriculture and their potential for sustainable and efficient crop management.
