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

backgroundAlthough plants may be regularly exposed to various abiotic stresses, including drought, salt, cold, heat, heavy metals, and UV-B throughout their lives, it is not possible to actively escape from such stresses due to the immobile nature of plants. To overcome adverse environmental stresses, plants have developed adaptive systems that allow appropriate responses to diverse environmental cues; such responses can be achieved by fine-tuning or controlling genetic and epigenetic regulatory systems. Epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA or histone modifications and modulation of chromatin accessibility have been shown to regulate the expression of stress-responsive genes in struggles against abiotic stresses.

objectiveHerein, the current progress in elucidating the epigenetic regulation of abiotic stress signaling in plants has been summarized in order to further understand the systems plants utilize to effectively respond to abiotic stresses.

methodsThis review focuses on the action mechanisms of various components that epigenetically regulate plant abiotic stress responses, mainly in terms of DNA methylation, histone methylation/acetylation, and chromatin remodeling.

conclusionsThis review can be considered a basis for further research into understanding the epigenetic control system for abiotic stress responses in plants. Moreover, the knowledge of such systems can be effectively applied in developing novel methods to generate abiotic stress resistant crops.
