ABCB transporters: functionality extends to more than auxin transportation.
Review in Planta, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
MAIN
conclusionABCs transport diverse compounds; with plant's most abundant ABCG and ABCB subfamilies. ABCBs are multi-functional transporter proteins having role in plant adaptation. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) proteins have been known for the transportation of various structurally diverse compounds in all kingdoms of life. Plants possess a particularly high number of ABC transporters compared to other eukaryotes: the most abundant being ABCG followed by the ABCB subfamilies. While members of the ABCB subfamily are primarily known for auxin transportation, however, studies have shown their involvement in variety of other functions viz. growth and development, biotic and abiotic stresses, metal toxicity and homeostasis, cellular redox state stability, stomatal regulation, cell shape maintenance, and transport of secondary metabolites and phytohormones. These proteins are able to perform various biological processes due to their widespread localization in the plasma membrane, mitochondrial membrane, chloroplast, and tonoplast facilitating membrane transport influenced by various environmental and biological cues. The current review compiles published insights into the role of ABCB transporters, and also provides brief insights into the role of ABCB transporters in a medicinal plant, where the synthesis of its bioactive secondary metabolite is linked to the primary function of ABCBs, i.e., auxin transport. The review discusses ABCB subfamily members as multi-functional protein and comprehensively examines their role in various biological processes that help plants to survive under unfavorable environmental conditions.
