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

Amino acid transporters (AATs) play important roles in plant growth and stress tolerance; however, whether the abscisic acid signaling pathway regulates their transcription in rice (Oryza sativa) under salt stress remains unclear. In this study, we report that the transcription factor OsMYB2 (MYB transcription factor 2) of the abscisic acid signaling pathway mediates the expression of the gene encoding the AAT aromatic and neutral AAT 1 (OsANT1), which positively regulates growth and salt tolerance in rice. OsANT1 was mainly expressed in the leaf blade and panicle under normal conditions and transports leucine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, and proline (Pro), positively regulating tillering and yield in rice. Nevertheless, salt stress induced the accumulation of abscisic acid and strongly increased the expression level of OsANT1 in the root, resulting in enhanced salt tolerance of rice seedlings, as evidenced by higher Pro concentration and antioxidant-like enzyme activities and lower malondialdehyde and hydrogen peroxide concentrations. Moreover, we showed that OsMYB2 interacts with the promoter of OsANT1 and promotes its expression. Overexpression of OsMYB2 also improved tillering, yield, and salt tolerance in rice. In conclusion, our results suggest that the transcription factor OsMYB2 triggers OsANT1 expression and regulates growth and salt tolerance in rice, providing insights into the role of the abscisic acid signaling pathway in the regulatory mechanism of AATs in response to salt stress.
