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

backgroundPlant-microbe interactions are essential for mitigating abiotic and biotic stressors by shaping the rhizosphere environment. However, how rhizosphere beneficial bacteria and plant metabolites respond to glufosinate (GLU)-induced toxicity remains largely unknown.

resultsOur study investigates the impact of GLU on chili plant growth and rhizosphere microbiome, emphasizing GLU-induced alterations in amino acid profiles, secondary metabolites, and microbial community composition, with notable enrichment of the Rhodococcus genus. To uncover the underlying mechanisms of Rhodococcus genus-root exudate interactions under GLU stress, we successfully isolated an efficient Rhodococcus gordoniae strain TR-5 from soil samples contaminated with GLU. This strain, isolated from GLU-contaminated soil, demonstrates potential for bioremediation and achieved over 95% GLU degradation efficiency at 35 °C, pH 6.38, and 1% inoculation rate. Through growth analysis, chemotaxis analysis, and molecular docking, caffeic acid disrupts the bacterial strain's metabolic pathways and impedes TR-5 development. In contrast, jasmonic acid (JA) acts as a chemoattractant, promoting bacterial growth and metabolic activity to degrade GLU residues, thereby effectively degrading GLU residues in the soil.

conclusionsThis research indicates that GLU significantly influences the metabolic mechanisms of pepper plants. The optimization of microbial remediation strategies may improve soil remediation efficiency and reduce environmental impacts, highlighting opportunities for integrating microbial remediation into sustainable agricultural practices. Our findings provide insights into the role of JA in attracting and promoting the growth and metabolic activities of the Rhodococcus genus, which could be harnessed to improve soil remediation and plant health under GLU stress.
