Hydro- and Xerohalophyte Species Drive Compositional and Functional Divergence in Bacterial Leaf Endosphere.
Article in Microbial ecology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Hydro- and xerohalophytes withstand stress thanks to the resistance traits they have, complemented with the functions of their associated microbiota. Besides, given a higher exposition of the phyllosphere to environmental conditions compared to roots, their endospheric bacteria should be more resistant to stress. In this study, we analysed the composition and functional traits of the bacterial leaf endosphere of six xero- and hydrohalophytes species in two seasons. We sequenced their endospheric metagenomes by shotgun and annotated genes related with Plant-Growth-Promoting (PGP) properties. We showed that the composition, structure and functions of the bacterial endosphere are mainly influenced by host plant species, followed by functional type. Moreover, plant species and functional type promoted a different relative abundance of, respectively, 62 and 6 PGP properties. This study shows that not only the composition but also the functionality of the bacterial leaf endosphere of halophytes is more influenced by host species than functional type. Moreover, the leaf endosphere of the different plant species and functional type could be an important source of bacteria with diverse PGP properties.
