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

In this research, the rhizosphere soil microbiome diversity of mangrove trees such as Avicennia marina, Ceriops tagal & Rhizophora apiculata and salt marsh halophytes Suaeda maritima, Suaeda monoica and Sesuvium portulacastrum from Karankadu mangroves of Tamil Nadu, India was investigated. The collected sample was profiled by 16S rRNA Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform sequencing of V3–V4 amplicon region by metagenomic approach to investigate the bacterial communities related with the different mangrove species. Root-associated microbes of the mangrove trees play important roles in protecting and maintaining mangrove ecosystems. Bacteria were the most abundant domain followed by Archaea and Eukaryota; Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Firmicutes, Fibrobacterota, Chlorobiota, and Bacteroidota were found to be predominant phyla present in all samples; Unculturable environmental microbes were also detected, particularly abundant in S. maritima and S. monoica samples. Staphylococcus aureus, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Salmonella enterica, Streptomyces griseocarneus were the most abundant species observed in this study. The variations in bacterial community structure across these ecosystems may be influenced by the distinct environmental conditions of each sampled mangrove habitat. For the first time, our findings highlight the richness of microbial diversity in the Karankadu mangroves, providing essential baseline data and revealing differences between mangrove trees and halophytes. This study offers valuable insights for further investigation into the mechanisms governing rhizosphere microbiome interactions with their host environment.
