1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus (AMF) Entrophospora lutea was previously selected as a highly compatible isolate for lupine, and the main objective of the present study was to further improve its performance and practical applicability by developing two E. lutea formulations using peat and vermiculite carriers enriched with various biostimulants. Incorporating biostimulants into AMF formulations can enhance fungal performance and root symbiosis. The first formulation contained proline, ascorbic acid, and hemicellulose, whereas the second contained proline, humic acid, and mannitol. Both formulations improved AMF performance by increasing the number of infective propagules and root colonization rate. Their efficacy against Rhizoctonia root rot in lupine was evaluated in comparison with unamended E. lutea and the fungicide Rizolex under greenhouse and field conditions. Under greenhouse conditions, Formulation 2 increased plant survival to 92% and reduced disease severity to 24.2%, compared with 48% survival and 65.8% disease severity in the infected control. Root colonization reached 78% and 69% for Formulations 1 and 2, respectively, compared with 53% for the unamended E. lutea. These improvements were associated with enhanced plant growth, nodulation, nitrogenous activity, and enhanced antioxidant enzyme activities. Formulation 2 showed a more pronounced effect with increased proline accumulation and caused 82.6% reduction in H
