Die another day: phytosulfokine at the molecular trade-off between growth and defense in plants.
Article in The EMBO journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Plants must make decisions to balance their growth versus defense against pathogens. Signaling of the plant peptide hormone phytosulfokine (PSK) has emerged as a critical stimulus for growth promotion. In this issue of The EMBO Journal, Ding et al (2022) show that PSK signaling promotes nitrogen assimilation via phosphorylation of glutamate synthase 2 (GS2). In the absence of PSK signaling, the plants growth is stunted, but its resistance to disease is reinforced.
