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

Sugar beet is vulnerable to years of continuous cropping, and allelopathy is one of the important factors leading to continuous cropping disorder. To explore the physiological and molecular mechanisms behind continuous cropping obstacles on sugar beet, this study combined transcriptomics and metabolomics to analyze the effects of different years of continuous cropping on metabolite changes, differential gene expression, and root exudate regulation in sugar beet. We collected sugar beet's root samples from 1-, 3-, and 5-year continuous cropping systems for metabolome and transcriptome analyses. Our data revealed that T3 and T5 had 50 and 33 metabolites significantly different from T1, respectively. The autotoxic substance salicylaldehyde was found to continuously accumulate in root exudates with increasing years of continuous cropping. Sucrose was highly reduced in T3 (4.05-fold decrease) and T5 (2.01-fold decrease) compared to T1. Respectively, 2,660 and 3,515 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were significantly regulated in T3 and T5 compared to T1. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses showed that metabolic pathways and biosynthesis of secondary metabolites were perturbed in T3 and T5 vs. T1. Integrated metabolomics analyses identified 73 DEGs involved in enriched metabolic pathways, all of which were the oxidation-reduction process pathways. In conclusion, this study provides evidence that continuous cropping obstacles can change the metabolome and transcriptome of sugar beet, affecting its growth and quality.
