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

backgroundProtein Phosphatase 2C (PP2C), a conserved family in plants, plays a crucial role in ABA and MAPK signaling pathways. Its functional diversity provides key mechanisms for plants' adaptation to environmental changes. However, research on PP2C family members remains significantly underexplored in seagrasses, which are model organisms adapted to complex marine environments.

methodsIn this study, we systematically analyzed the PP2C gene family in eelgrass using bioinformatic methods and performed a qPCR experiment to verify the expression of a few members in their response to salt stress.

resultsThe eelgrass PP2C gene family comprises 52 members, categorized into 13 subfamilies. Most PP2C genes exhibit a differential expression across various organs, with some members showing significant organ specificity. For instance, 12 members are specifically highly expressed in male flowers, suggesting that PP2Cs may function in male flower development. Additionally, four members (

conclusionsThis study provides a new insight for understanding the biological functions of the PP2C family in eelgrass, which is important for elucidating the mechanisms of its growth, development, and environmental adaptability.
