Plant phenolic compounds and oxidative stress: integrated signals in fungal-plant interactions.
Review in Current genetics, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 72 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Upon invasion of a host, fungal pathogens are exposed to a variety of stresses. Plants release reactive oxygen species, and mount a variety of preformed and induced chemical defenses. Phenolic compounds are one example: they are ubiquitous in plants, and an invading pathogen encounters them already at the leaf surface, or for soil-borne pathogens, in the rhizosphere. Phenolic and related aromatic compounds show varying degrees of toxicity to cells. Some compounds are quite readily metabolized, and others less so. It was known already from classical studies that phenolic substrates induce the expression of the enzymes for their degradation. Recently, the ability to degrade phenolics was shown to be a virulence factor. Conversely, phenolic compounds can increase the effectiveness of antifungals. Phenolics are known antioxidants, yet they have been shown to elicit cellular responses that would usually be triggered to counter oxidant stress. Here, we review the evidence for a connection between the fungal response to phenolics as small-molecule signals, and the response to oxidants. The connections proposed here should enable genetic screens to identify specific fungal receptors for plant phenolics. Furthermore, understanding how the pathogen detects plant phenolic compounds as a stress signal may facilitate new antifungal strategies.
