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

backgroundHeat stress factors (Hsfs) play vital roles in signal transduction pathways operating in responses to environmental stresses. However, Hsf gene family has not been thoroughly explored in tea plant (Camellia sinensis L.).

resultsIn this study, we identified 25 CsHsf genes in C. sinensis that were separated by phylogenetic analysis into three sub-families (i.e., A, B, and C). Gene structures, conserved domains and motifs analyses indicated that the CsHsf members in each class were relatively conserved. Various cis-acting elements involved in plant growth regulation, hormone responses, stress responses, and light responses were located in the promoter regions of CsHsfs. Furthermore, degradome sequencing analysis revealed that 7 CsHsfs could be targeted by 9 miRNAs. The expression pattern of each CsHsf gene was significantly different in eight tissues. Many CsHsfs were differentially regulated by drought, salt, and heat stresses, as well as exogenous abscisic acid (ABA) and Ca

conclusionsA comprehensive genome-wide analysis of Hsf in C. sinensis present the global identification and functional prediction of CsHsfs. Most of them were implicated in a complex gene regulatory network controlling various abiotic stress responses and signal transduction pathways in tea plants. Additionally, heterologous expression of CsHsfA2 increased thermotolerance of transgenic yeast. These findings provide new insights into the functional divergence of CsHsfs and a basis for further research on CsHsfs functions.
