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

Phosphorus is an essential macronutrient for crop growth, but soil-available phosphorus is commonly lacking. Conventional chemical P fertilizers suffer from low utilization efficiency and dependence on finite phosphate rock reserves, necessitating the urgent development of green and efficient alternative strategies for phosphorus management. Phosphate-solubilizing microorganisms (PSMs) are capable of converting insoluble inorganic and organic phosphorus in soils into plant-available forms, thereby serving as key biological resources for enhancing phosphorus use efficiency, reducing dependence on chemical fertilizers, and promoting sustainable agricultural development. This review systematically covers the taxonomic diversity and multifaceted applications of PSMs, elucidates the mechanisms of inorganic P solubilization and organic P mineralization, and separately summarizes recent advances in functional genes involved in inorganic and organic P degradation. It further identifies key bottlenecks restricting PSM development and envisions the use of emerging technologies to transition PSM inoculants from empirical screening toward rationally designed precision deployment, thereby strengthening the scientific and technological foundation for enhancing phosphorus use efficiency and promoting green agricultural sustainability.
