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

Cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), and zinc (Zn) are among the most common heavy metals (HMs) present in polluted soils. While some HMs are required for key biological processes, they are toxic when present in excess. This toxicity damages plant health, decreases crop yields, and can impact human health via the food chain. For example, durum wheat is a staple food that is known to accumulate Cd when grown on polluted soils. Plant response to HM stress is complex and involves several transcription factors (TFs) among which members of the ERF family. Although roles of SHINE-type ERF transcription factors in abiotic stress tolerance have been thoroughly investigated, there is little information concerning their role in HM stress tolerance. In the present study, we investigated the role of durum wheat TdSHN1 TF in HM response and tolerance. Results showed that TdSHN1 expression was strongly induced by Cd, Cu, and Zn in durum wheat seedlings. In addition, TdSHN1 gene promoter directed HM-inducible GUS gene expression in transgenic tobacco. Overexpression of TdSHN1 encoding cDNA in transgenic yeast and tobacco conferred Cd, Cu, and Zn tolerances. Interestingly, transgenic tobacco lines exhibited longer roots and greater biomass accumulation, retained more chlorophyll, and produced less ROS than WT plants, when subjected to excess HMs. In addition, transgenic tobacco lines had higher activities of ROS-scavenging enzymes (SOD and CAT) which might have contributed to their HM tolerance. This study suggested that TdSHN1 is a potential candidate for improving HM tolerance in plants and phytoremediation of HM-contaminated soils.
