Ectopic expression of GroEL from Xenorhabdus nematophila in tomato enhances resistance against Helicoverpa armigera and salt and thermal stress.

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 GroEL homolog XnGroEL protein of Xenorhabdus nematophila belongs to a highly conserved family of molecular chaperones/heat shock proteins (Hsps). XnGroEL was shown to possess oral insecticidal activity against a major crop pest Helicoverpa armigera. Under normal conditions, the Hsps/chaperones facilitate folding, assembly, and translocation of cellular proteins, while in stress conditions they protect proteins from denaturation. In this study, we describe generation of transgenic tomato plants overexpressing insecticidal XnGroEL protein and their tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. Presence of XnGroEL in the transgenic tomato lines conferred resistance against H. armigera showing 100% (p ≤ 0.001) mortality of neonates. In addition, XnGroEL provided thermotolerance and protection against high salt concentration to the tomato plants. Expression of XnGroEL minimized photo-oxidation of chlorophyll and reduced oxidative damage of cell membrane system of the plants under heat and salt stress. The enhanced tolerance to abiotic stresses correlated with increase in the anti-oxidative enzyme activity and reduced H2O2 accumulation in transgenic tomato plants. The variety of beneficial properties displayed by XnGroEL protein provides an opportunity for value addition and improvement of crop productivity.
