Unexpected Large Photosynthetic Thermal Plasticity of Montane Andean Trees.
Article in Global change biology, 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
Tropical forests play a significant role in global carbon sequestration. However, our understanding of how tropical tree species adjust to climate warming remains limited to studies on seedlings grown in pots and highly controlled growth conditions. To reduce this knowledge gap, we used a field experiment with 5-year-old juvenile trees of 12 naturally co-occurring dominant tropical Andean montane and lowland species growing in three common gardens established along a natural thermosequence in the tropical Andes. Based on a few previous studies, we hypothesized that montane species would exhibit a weaker photosynthetic thermal acclimation capacity compared to lowland counterparts. Our results showed that montane tree species can thermally acclimate net photosynthesis by shifting their thermal optimum (T
