Metabolic and physiological responses to progressive drought stress in bread wheat.
Article in Scientific reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 45 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Wheat (Tritium aestivum) is vulnerable to future climate change because it is predominantly grown under rain-fed conditions in drought-prone areas. Thus, in-depth understanding of drought effect on wheat metabolism is essential for developing drought-tolerant wheat varieties. Here, we exposed wheat 'Norin 61' plants to progressive drought stress [0 (before drought), 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 days after withholding water] during the flowering stage to investigate physiological and metabolomic responses. Transcriptional analyses of key abscisic acid-responsive genes indicated that abscisic acid signalling played a major role in the adaptation of wheat to water deficit. Carbon isotope composition had a higher value than the control while canopy temperature (CT) increased under drought stress. The CT depression was tightly correlated with soil water potential (SWP). Additionally, SWP at - 517 kPa was identified as the critical point for increasing CT and inducing reactive oxygen species. Metabolome analysis identified four potential drought-responsive biomarkers, the enhancement of nitrogen recycling through purine and pyrimidine metabolism, drought-induced senescence based on 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid and Asn accumulation, and an anti-senescence response through serotonin accumulation under severe drought stress. Our findings provide in-depth insight into molecular, physiological and metabolite changes involved in drought response which are useful for wheat breeding programs to develop drought-tolerant wheat varieties.
