Role of bacterial quorum sensing in plant growth promotion.
Review in World journal of microbiology & biotechnology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Quorum sensing (QS) also known as bacterial cell-cell communication or bacterial crosstalk is a phenomenon regulating various bacterial traits that can affect plant growth and defence. Similarities in the structure of root exudates and bacterial signalling molecules have tremendous implications governing the plant heath. The rhizosphere ecosystem being an excellent example of plant-microbe and microbe-microbe interactions harbours a variety of microorganisms exhibiting quorum sensing. Phytochemicals present in plant root exudates and QS signal molecules as well as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) produced by microorganisms work in coordination to establish intra- and inter-species communications. Interestingly, a number of plant growth promoting rhziobacterial (PGPR) activities like effective/enhanced root colonization, nutrient uptake, nodulation, nitrogen fixation, production of plant hormones, antimicrobial compounds and induction of plant defences can be attributed directly or indirectly to their quorum sensing and quenching abilities. Although not completely understood, root development, stress tolerance and defence against phytopathogens are some of the implications of such abilities which might prove beneficial for sustainable agriculture. Deciphering the mechanism of these interactions would be instrumental in improving crop health. Plant beneficial microorganisms employing QS and QS inhibition (QSI) strategies have been discussed in this review.
