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

The phytotoxicity of aluminum (Al) to plants is well known. Auxin accumulation and reactive oxygen species (ROS) burst induced by Al toxicity are the key factors in root growth inhibition. Yucasin, an auxin synthesis inhibitor, effectively ameliorates Al phytotoxicity in tomato seedlings. However, the physiological mechanisms by which yucasin alleviates Al phytotoxicity in tomatoes remain elusive. Here, we examined the regulatory mechanisms of yucasin involved in tomato seedling growth under Al conditions through phenotypic, plant physiology analysis, and cellular experiments. Exogenous indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) application increased Al accumulation in tomato seedling roots, while yucasin decreased Al accumulation. Yucasin application reduced Al-induced ROS accumulation, lipid peroxidation, and cell death, enhanced root viability, and promoted tomato seedling root growth. Further, yucasin enhanced the antioxidant enzyme activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and peroxidase in plants under Al conditions. The results suggest that yucasin improves the scavenging capacity of ROS by maintaining the activities of antioxidative enzymes. This study elucidates the physiological mechanism by which yucasin alleviates Al phytotoxicity, highlighting its potential to enhance plant tolerance under acidic Al conditions.
