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

backgroundPhaseolus vulgaris is a warm-season crop sensitive to low temperatures, which can adversely affect its growth, yield, and market value. Exogenous growth regulators, such as diethyl aminoethyl hexanoate (DA-6), have shown potential in alleviating stress caused by adverse environmental conditions. However, the effects that DA-6 has on P. vulgaris plants subjected to low-temperature stress are not well understood. This study aimed to investigate the impact DA-6 has on the growth, photosynthesis, antioxidant system, and gene expression in cold-tolerant (YJ009763) and cold-sensitive (Baibulao) P. vulgaris seedlings under low-temperature stress.

resultsTo simulate low-temperature stress, P. vulgaris seedlings were exposed to 5 °C, and 25 mg/L DA-6 solution applied to their leaves. This study revealed that DA-6 significantly enhanced the growth and photosynthetic performance of P. vulgaris seedlings under low-temperature stress. Specifically, DA-6 increased chlorophyll content and photosynthetic rates, reducing stomatal limitation and enhancing carbon assimilation. It also improved the photosynthetic efficiency by boosting electron transport in the reaction center. The antioxidant enzyme activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), and catalase (CAT) were markedly increased following DA-6 treatment. After 24 h of low-temperature stress, the cold-tolerant seedlings showed a 68.95% increase in POD activity, whereas the cold-sensitive seedlings displayed a 160.63% increase in SOD activity and an 85.56% increase in CAT activity. In addition, DA-6 significantly reduced the production rate of superoxide anion radical generation, with a 25.24% reduction in cold-tolerant seedlings and a 49.38% reduction in cold-sensitive seedlings. Under low-temperature stress, exogenous DA-6 could upregulate the relative expression of antioxidant enzyme-related genes, such as PvSOD and PvAPX. DA-6 also promoted the expression of key antioxidant genes, including PvMDHAR and PvDHAR2, which accelerated the ascorbate-glutathione cycle and mitigated oxidative stress.

conclusionExogenous application of DA-6 effectively alleviates low-temperature stress in P. vulgaris by enhancing photosynthetic capacity and regulating the antioxidant defense system. Cold-tolerant varieties exhibited a stronger response to DA-6, demonstrating a greater ability to withstand cold stress. These findings suggest that DA-6 treatment could serve as a promising approach for improving the resilience of P. vulgaris to low temperatures.
