Morphogenetic identification and enzymatic determination of local isolate fungi associated with mosquitoes at Assiut Governorate.
Article in BMC microbiology, 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
backgroundMosquitoes pose a significant threat as vectors for numerous human and animal diseases, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions, including Egypt. Given the prevalence of mosquito-borne diseases and the documented high densities of Culex pipiens in Assiut Governorate, there is a critical need for environmentally friendly mosquito management strategies. This study aimed to identify the morphogenetic and determine the enzymatic potential of native fungal isolates associated with mosquitoes in Assiut Governorate.
resultsEight distinct fungal species were successfully characterized based on their morphological traits and ITS rDNA sequence data. These species were identified as Alternaria tenuissima, Trichoderma hamatum, Purpureocillium lilacinum, Geotrichum candidum, and four Fusarium species (F. oxysporum, F. solani, F. equiseti, and F. incarnatum). The results of enzymatic screening emphasize that twenty-two fungal isolates belonging to eight species had the biochemical machinery substantial for cuticle degeneration, with various levels of phospholipase, lipase, protease, and chitinase activities. The strongest synergistic enzymatic profiles were notably displayed by P. lilacinum and F. equiseti.
conclusionThe extensive morphological and molecular description and enzymatic detection provide crucial promotion for evaluating the potential of these local fungal isolates for future sustainable insect pest management in the specific ecological context of Assiut Governorate.
