Central role of 70-kDa heat shock protein in adaptation of plants to drought stress.
Article in Cell stress & chaperones, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 40 papers.
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 70-kDa heat shock proteins (HSP70s) are a conserved class of chaperones that play critical roles during the normal life cycle of plants. HSP70s are particularly involved in the regulation of biotic and abiotic stress responses. In this paper, the potential roles of this protein were investigated. A reverse genetic approach was employed for transient silencing of hsp70 gene in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) to evaluate different growth and physiological parameters under normal conditions and during the response to drought stress. A combined ANOVA (analysis of variance) and HCA (hierarchical clustering analysis) showed that hsp70 silencing led to severe growth retardation and mortality, significant membrane damage and leakage, decline in relative water content, low rate of pigment accumulation, and reduced antioxidant enzyme activity under normal and drought stress conditions. Among the different parameters, proline was the only trait that was unaffected by gene silencing and accumulated by similar amounts to that of nonsilent plants. In conclusion, HSP70 played critical roles in maintaining the cellular homeostasis of plants during adaptation to drought and under normal plant life conditions. It was speculated that proline was, to some extent, involved in improving the loss of protein folding or function resulting from HSP70 deficiency, and played a crucial role in the adaptation of plants on exposure to stress.
