Characterization of a novel zinc finger transcription factor (TaZnF) from wheat conferring heat stress tolerance in Arabidopsis.

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
C3HC4-type zinc finger proteins are known to play important roles in various plant processes including regulation of growth and development, signaling networks, responses to abiotic stresses etc. The current study identifies and explores the involvement of TaZnF in plant stress response, mainly heat stress. TaZnF belongs to C4HC3-type zinc finger transcription factor. Phylogenetic analysis of TaZnF revealed strong sequence similarity to Brachypodium distachyon, a model system for crop species. Gene expression studies have revealed its role under diverse stress conditions including heat and cold conditions. The transcript level of TaZnF was found to be highest in seed and starts at the post anthesis period 3-5DAA, a more sensitive stage resulting in a negative influence on the yield of crop species. TaZnF possesses transcriptional activity. Overexpression of TaZnF in Arabidopsis thaliana conferred improved tolerance to both basal and high-temperature stress as observed from various assays examining their growth and development. The transgenics were recovered and showed early flowering compared to wild-type. They had larger primary roots, more lateral branching, bigger, and more numerous leaves, resulting in heavier fresh weight. Enhanced growth and early recovery resulted in bigger plants with more yield. Additionally, the overexpression Arabidopsis transgenics also showed considerable tolerance to cold and oxidative stress. These observations suggest that TaZnF acts as a positive regulator of thermal stress and thus can be of great significance in understanding and improving temperature stress tolerance in plants.
