Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Inoculation Mediated Changes in Phytohormones Under Drought Stress.
Article in Mycobiology, 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
Changes in climatic conditions around the world have increased day by day which leads to droughts in agricultural lands. Nowadays various technologies and methodologies are being used to protect plants from drought stress. Among various methods, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) mediated alleviation of drought stress was found to be a more efficient one. Most of the AMF studies revealed their importance for water status, gas exchange, and nutrient uptake, but they also act as potential candidates for the regulation of phytohormones. At present, there is no comprehensive and quantitative evaluation of the phytohormonal changes under drought stress. Therefore, we carried out a random-effects model of meta-analysis to explore the influences of AMF inoculation on phytohormones under drought stress. Results showed that stress hormones increased by 2% but were non-significant, whereas growth hormones significantly increased by 24% in AMF-inoculated plants. Among phytohormones, indole acetic acid (IAA) content increased significantly by 37%. Also increased content of jasmonic acid (JA) (25%), salicylic acid (SA) (25%), gibberellins (24%), and brassinosteroids (11%) compared to non-mycorrhizal plants. Due to low sample size, we treated results with caution. However, abscisic acid (ABA) contents decreased by 6% in AMF-inoculated plants. Among growth hormones, IAA showed more positive effect sizes in AMF-inoculated plants under drought stress conditions. Among phytohormones, JA and SA had a positive effect size, whereas ABA showed a negative effect size. These results conclude that depending upon the level of stress, AMF species and plant species determined the accumulation of phytohormones under drought stress.
