Genome-wide characterization of FAD gene family in Xanthoceras sorbifolium Bunge and germplasm assessment.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Fatty acid desaturases (FADs) play a pivotal role in the accumulation of oils in plant seeds. To elucidate the role of FADs in oil accumulation in the seeds of Xanthoceras sorbifolium, this study employed bioinformatics analysis methods to identify and analyze the FAD gene family. A total of 25 XsFAD genes were unevenly distributed across 11 chromosomes. Systematic phylogenetic analysis revealed that the XsFAD gene family is divided into three branches, with each branch exhibiting similar gene structures. The regulatory elements within the XsFAD gene promoter indicate that XsFAD genes are regulated by multiple factors. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) validation revealed a positive correlation between the expression levels of XsFAD genes and the oil content of X. sorbifolium. By conducting phenotypic measurements of the X. sorbifolium fruit and seeds, as well as quantitative analysis of the XsFAD gene expression, it has been preliminarily identified that the Liudong-5 variety may poseess the potential to be developed into a high-yield oil-producing variety, which may be related to the habitat of the X. sorbifolium germplasm and requires further investagation. In summary, this study provides a foundational understanding of the FAD gene family of X. sorbifolium, and the research outcomes will contribute to the theoretical basis for the selection of high-yielding oil varieties of X. sorbifolium in the Xinjiang region, as well as further genetic breeding and cultivation system studies.
