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

Soil microelement deficiency and heavy metal contamination affects plant growth and development, but improving trace element uptake and reducing heavy metal accumulation by genetic breeding can help alleviate this. Cell number regulator 2 (TaCNR2) from common wheat (Triticum aestivum) are similar to plant cadmium resistance proteins, involved with regulating heavy metal translocation. Our aim was to understand the effect of TaCNR2 on heavy metal tolerance and translocation. In this study, real-time quantitative PCR indicated TaCNR2 expression in the wheat seedlings increased under Cd, Zn and Mn treatment. Overexpression of TaCNR2 in Arabidopsis and rice enhanced its stress tolerance to Cd, Zn and Mn, and overexpression in rice improved Cd, Zn and Mn translocation from roots to shoots. The grain husks in overexpressed rice had higher Cd, Zn and Mn concentrations, but the brown rice accumulated less Cd but higher Mn than wild rice. The results showed that TaCNR2 can transport heavy metal ions. Thus, this study provides a novel gene resource for increasing nutrition uptake and reducing toxic metal accumulation in crops.
