Different Land Use Systems in the Brazilian Cerrado and Their Effects on Soil Bacterial Communities.
Article in Microorganisms, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The effect of agricultural practices on soil bacterial communities is not constant and depends a lot on the climatic context, changes in the soil characteristics, land use, and agricultural strategy. Thus, knowledge about how different land use systems in the Cerrado influence the diversity and taxonomic structure of microbial communities under the same soil type remains limited. In this context, the objective of this work was to analyze and compare the bacterial communities of Cerrado soil under two different land use systems (cover crop and potato cultivation) and in a neighboring native Cerrado area. For this, we used high-throughput amplicon sequencing of 16S rRNA genes (metabarcoding) to characterize the bacterial community at different taxonomic levels in a native Cerrado area, in a potato crop area, and in an area with cover crops. Our data indicated significant impacts on soil physicochemical properties and enzymatic activity, which directly reflect the dynamics of bacterial communities. The three bacterial phyla with the highest relative abundance in the three areas were Proteobacteria, Actinobacteriota, and Acidobacteriota. At the taxonomic class level, small variations were observed among areas, while at the amplicon sequence variant (ASV) level, these variations were more pronounced. The alpha diversity indices showed that the bacterial communities among the areas are rich and diverse. Bray-Curtis and Jaccard distance-based PCoA demonstrated an overlap of bacterial communities present in the cover crop area with the native Cerrado area and separation from the potato cultivation area. The in silico prediction demonstrated that the native Cerrado area presented the highest values of functional diversity of the soil bacterial community compared to the others. Thus, our results provide a holistic view of how different land use systems in the Cerrado can influence the taxonomic and functional diversity of soil bacterial communities.
