The effect of crop-rotation systems in regenerative agricultural environments on the rhizosphere microbiome of dry-land winter wheat.

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
Regenerative agriculture is a multifaceted approach that aims at transitioning farmers from conventional to sustainable management practices, by increasing biodiversity, functional redundancy, and nutrient cycling efficiency in the soil. This study investigated the effects of three crop rotation systems, wheat after wheat, wheat after medicago, and wheat after canola on the soil fungal and bacterial communities, in a regenerative agriculture system, in the Western Cape, South Africa, following a record-breaking drought (2015-19). Utilizing 16S rRNA and ITS (Internal transcribed spacer region) targeted amplicon sequences, soil-geochemical properties, and qPCR (Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction) analyses, it was found that crop rotations had little significant effect on the alpha-diversity between different crop-rotation systems . Medicago and wheat had the most similar communities, with canola diverging from the other rotation systems. Host driven selection was prevalent in the rhizosphere microbiome during the wheat growth period, across treatments and farms. After senescence, the microbiome composition transitioned from the wheat-selected communities towards communities consisting of saprotrophs and yeasts. qPCR analyses of nitrogen-associated genes revealed that genes for nitrification (
