Significance of Raffinose Family Oligosaccharides (RFOs) metabolism in plants.
Review in Advanced biotechnology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Raffinose Family Oligosaccharides (RFOs) are a kind of polysaccharide containing D-galactose, and they widely exist in higher plants. Synthesis of RFOs begins with galactinol synthase (GolS; EC 2.4.1.123) to convert myo-inositol into galactinol. The subsequent formation of raffinose and stachyose are catalyzed by raffinose synthase (RS; EC 2.4.1.82) and stachyose synthase (STS; EC 2.4.1.67) using sucrose and galactinol as substrate, respectively. The hydrolysis of RFOs is finished by α-galactosidase (α-Gal; EC 3.2.1.22) to produce sucrose and galactose. Importance of RFOs metabolism have been summarized, e.g. In RFOs translocating plants, the phloem loading and unloading of RFOs are widely reported in mediating the plant development process. Interference function of RFOs synthesis or hydrolysis enzymes caused growth defect. In addition, the metabolism of RFOs involved in the biotic or abiotic stresses was discussed in this review. Overall, this literature summarizes our current understanding of RFOs metabolism and points out knowledge gaps that need to be filled in future.
