Environmental Gradients Shape Fungal Diversity and Functional Traits in Arctic Biocrusts.
Article in Journal of fungi (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Arctic biological soil crusts (biocrusts) are known to host diverse fungal communities that facilitate nutrient cycling and soil stabilisation in these harsh environments. In this study, the diversity and composition of fungi were assessed across elevation and spatial gradients in biocrusts from Kongsfjorden (Svalbard) using metagenomic sequencing. Within the observed fungal phyla, Ascomycota was dominant across all sites, with Basidiomycota and Rozellomycota also exhibiting high abundances. Furthermore, saprotrophic fungi were most abundant, followed by mycorrhizal and parasitic guilds. Lichen-associated fungi were also detected across the samples, although their read counts were substantially lower. Additionally, the fungal genus richness and guild composition exhibited no significant variation between elevations, but location within the fjord strongly shaped community structure.
