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

backgroundThe BAG gene family, encoding Bcl-2-associated anti-apoptotic proteins, plays pivotal roles in regulating plant growth, development, and stress responses. Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.), a globally significant oilseed and cash crop, is highly valued for its economic importance. However, systematic genome-wide analysis and functional characterization of the BAG gene family in peanut remain largely unexplored.

resultsIn this study, we identified 13 AhBAG genes in the peanut genome, which are unevenly distributed across 11 chromosomes. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that these AhBAG genes, together with BAG family members from other plant species, are classified into four distinct clades, underscoring their evolutionary conservation. Segmental duplication was identified as a major driver of the expansion of the AhBAG gene family. Notably, AhYSVF0U exhibited significant upregulation under Ralstonia solanacearum infection and abscisic acid treatment, suggesting its potential involvement in mediating peanut resistance to bacterial wilt.

conclusionsThis study provides comprehensive insights into the evolutionary and functional characteristics of the peanut BAG gene family and offers valuable genetic resources for molecular breeding programs aimed at improving stress tolerance in peanut.
