Post-fire Succession and Soil Chemical Properties Shape Soil Fungal Community Structure and Diversity in Hemiboreal Scots Pine Forests in Estonia.
Article in Microbial ecology, 2026. 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
We investigated the short- and long-term effects of forest fires on soil fungal communities across a forest fire chronosequence of Pinus sylvestris-dominated stands in northwestern Estonia. Soil fungal communities were characterized using PacBio sequencing of the ITS1-5.8 S-ITS2 genomic region. These effects were studied in seven different sites that differed in time since the last fire (1, 14, 25, 40, 71, 82 and 185 years ago). Overall and saprotrophic diversity was highest at the burn site where fourteen years had passed since the last fire. Ectomycorrhizal diversity was highest at the one-year-old burn site. Overall diversity of vascular plants was negatively correlated with overall diversity of fungi. Time since fire was the most significant factor in shaping overall fungal diversity and community structure. EcM and saprotrophic fungal diversity were more influenced by soil chemical properties such as pH, C,N content and Mg.
