Fatty acid signatures distinguish autotrophy, partial mycoheterotrophy, and full mycoheterotrophy in angiosperms.

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
Detecting partial mycoheterotrophy in green plants remains challenging, particularly in associations with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) or rhizoctonia fungi, because natural-abundance stable isotope patterns often provide limited diagnostic resolution in these systems. We tested whether fatty acid composition, widely used to infer trophic relationships in animal and soil ecology, provides complementary evidence of fungal carbon acquisition by plants. We characterized fatty acid profiles of 21 autotrophic reference plants, six partially mycoheterotrophic plants, and 17 fully mycoheterotrophic plants associated with AM, ectomycorrhizal, or saprotrophic fungi. In expanded analyses, we additionally examined three individuals each of the rhizoctonia-associated orchid Goodyera biflora and the presumed autotrophic AM plant Trillium camschatcense with marked
