Transcriptome profiling and gene expression analyses of eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) under heat stress.
Article in PloS one, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Global warming induces heat stress in eggplant, seriously affecting its quality and yield. The response to heat stress is a complex regulatory process; however, the exact mechanism in eggplant is unknown. We analyzed the transcriptome of eggplant under different high-temperature treatments using RNA-Seq technology. Three libraries treated at high temperatures were generated and sequenced. There were 40,733,667, 40,833,852, and 40,301,285 clean reads with 83.98%, 79.69%, and 84.42% of sequences mapped to the eggplant reference genome in groups exposed to 28°C (CK), 38°C (T38), and 43°C (T43), respectively. There were 3,067 and 1,456 DEGs in T38 vs CK and T43 vs CK groups, respectively. In these two DEG groups, 315 and 342 genes were up- and down-regulated, respectively, in common. Differential expression patterns of DEGs in antioxidant enzyme systems, detoxication, phytohormones, and transcription factors under heat stress were investigated. We screened heat stress-related genes for further validation by qRT-PCR. Regulation mechanisms may differ under different temperature treatments, in which heat shock proteins and heat stress transcription factors play vital roles. These results provide insight into the molecular mechanisms of the heat stress response in eggplant and may be useful in crop breeding.
