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

Crocus sativus is a valuable plant due to the presence of apocarotenoids in its stigma. Considerable work has been done in the past to understand the apocarotenoid biosynthetic pathway in saffron. However, the reports on understanding the regulation of flowering at the post-transcriptional level are meagre. The study aimed to discover the candidate miRNAs, target genes, transcription factors (TFs), and apocarotenoid biosynthetic pathway genes associated with the regulation and transition of flowering in C. sativus. In the present investigation, miRNA profiling was performed in flowering and non-flowering corms of saffron, along with expression analysis of apocarotenoid genes and transcription factors involved in the synthesis of secondary metabolites. Significant modulation in the expression of miR156, miR159, miR166, miR172, miR395, miR396, miR399, and miR408 gene families was observed. We obtained 36 known miRNAs (26 in flowering and 10 in non-flowering) and 64 novel miRNAs (40 in flowering and 24 in non-flowering) unique to specific tissues in our analysis. TFs, including CsMADS and CsMYb, showed significant modulation in expression in flowering tissue, followed by CsHB. Additionally, the miRNAs were predicted to be involved in carbohydrate metabolism, phytohormone signalling, regulation of flower development, and response to stress, cold, and defence. The comprehensive study has enhanced our understanding of the regulatory machinery comprising factors like phytohormones, abiotic stress, apocarotenoid genes, transcription factors, and miRNAs responsible for the synthesis of apocarotenoids and developmental processes during and after flowering.
