Desert Plant Endophyte Genome Database: a curated repository of endophytic bacterial genomes across arid ecosystems.
Article in Database : the journal of biological databases and curation, 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
Microbial communities associated with desert plants play a pivotal role in enhancing host survival under extreme environmental stressors, including drought, salinity, and nutrient limitation. The Desert Plant Endophyte Microbial Collection is one of the largest curated repositories of 2500 cultivable endophytic bacteria isolated from 23 native desert plant species across Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Pakistan. Representing a broad spectrum of arid microhabitats from inland deserts and mountain wadis to coastal mangroves and date palm oases, the collection supports integrative studies on microbial ecology and plant-microbe interactions in water-limited ecosystems. A central component of this initiative is the Desert Plant Endophyte Genome Database, which currently hosts whole-genome sequences of 534 endophytic bacterial isolates annotated with extensive ecological metadata, assembly statistics, functional traits, and host associations. The database interface provides tools for genome exploration, metadata filtering, and functional gene mining, enabling users to identify taxa and traits of agronomic interest, particularly for applications in sustainable agriculture and sustainable desert revegetation. By combining genomic, ecological, and functional data, the Desert Plant Endophyte Genome Database serves as a foundational platform for the development of targeted microbial inoculants and fosters data-driven research into desert microbiomes and plant resilience mechanisms.
