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

Heat shock factors (HSFs) play crucial roles in various plant stress responses. However, the current knowledge about HSFs in cassava, an important crop, is still insufficient. In this research, we identified 32 cassava HSF genes (MeHSFs) and clustered them into three groups (A, B, C) based on phylogenetic analysis and structural characteristics. Conserved motif analyses showed that MeHSFs display domains characteristic to HSF transcription factors. Gene structure analyses suggested that 29 MeHSFs contained only two exons. All identified 32 cassava MeHSFs were distributed on 13 chromosomes. Their expression profiles revealed that the different MeHSFs were expressed differentially in different tissues, most high expression genes belonged to group A. The similar MeHSFs were up-regulated after treatment with both PEG and abscisic acid (ABA), which implied that these MeHSFs may participate in resistance to simulated drought stress associated with the ABA signaling pathway. In addition, several MeHSFs were induced during postharvest physiological deterioration (PPD) in cassava. Our results provided basic but important knowledge for future gene function analysis of MeHSFs toward efforts in improving tolerance to abiotic stress and PPD in cassava.
