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

backgroundGrowth regulators play an important role in activating the main signal transduction pathways in response to stress, and their activity is key in the general mechanism to understanding the formation of phytoimmunity under biotic stress. The study investigates the specificity of stress-protective reactions in winter wheat varieties with varying degrees of sensitivity to the phytopathogen Blumeria graminis (DC) Speer f. sp. tritici, and determined the effectiveness of exogenous salicylic and succinic acids as inducers of resistance to powdery mildew.

resultsExogenous application of 0.1 mM salicylic acid induced stress-protective reactions in the resistant wheat, characterised by increased ethylene release, and phenylalanine amino-lyase and ascorbate peroxidase activity in the flag leaves. These steps help optimize its physiological state and productivity by preserving the integrity of cell membranes and its chlorophyll content. Exogenous succinic acid at a concentration of 0.1 mM also led to the activation of protective antioxidant systems, which did not have a positive effect on plant physiology or productivity during infection. The susceptible variety of winter wheat was unable to mobilize the necessary stress-protective systems, regardless of salicylic or succinic acid treatment, resulting in the spread of infection and reduced productivity.

conclusionsThe resistance of winter wheat to phytopathogen damage (Blumeria graminis (DC) Speer f. sp. tritici) is determined by the capacity of the plant to mobilize stress-protective reactions and optimize its metabolism. Salicylic acid (0.1 mM) effectively enhances plant defence systems, thus improving plant physiology and productivity during the spread of powdery mildew.
