Soil Microbiome for Climate Smart Agriculture in Legumes: A Review.
Review in Current microbiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. 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
Climate-smart agriculture is a multidisciplinary farm model approach that helps reduce the impact of climate change not only on soil but on entire agricultural systems. One of the critical approaches of climate-smart agriculture is using the soil microbiome to help the crop adapt to the changing climate and increase crop production. The microorganisms that are present in the soil play a crucial role in ecosystem services, crop protection and performance, and productivity. Legumes are essential for their nutritional value and interaction with soil microbes, particularly in fixing atmospheric nitrogen and improving soil health through plant-microbe association. Beyond Rhizobium, a wide range of microorganisms and fungi assist legumes in adapting to climate stresses such as drought stress and salinity, which ultimately enhances biomass and legume yield. However, the molecular mechanisms behind the interactions between microbiomes and plant growth, ecosystem services, and carbon sequestration remain unclear in legumes. This review aims to explain the key roles of the soil microbiome, legume rhizobiome, and the microbial genes associated with functional plant traits that help plants adapt to a changing climate. Understanding how microbial populations shift due to climate variations and how these changes affect legume yields is crucial, given the ever-changing nature of ecosystems due to climatic shifts. Therefore, more research is warranted to explore plant microbial interactions, understand the dynamics of climatic shifts, and develop microbiome engineering tools for the improved health of crop and rhizobiome ecosystems. Furthermore, a parallel study is required to examine the harmful microbiome that causes crop destruction and antagonizes important bacteria.
