Comparative analysis of chloroplast genomes within Saxifraga sect. Ciliatae: insights into their adaptation to the alpine environment.
Article in BMC plant biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Saxifraga sect. Ciliatae, comprising about 200 species, primarily concentrated in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP), exhibits high species richness in alpine regions, showing variations in habitat, morphology, physiology, and life cycles. Its adaptation to alpine environments renders it ideal for understanding the genetic basis of how species cope with cold climates. In this study, we sequenced, assembled and analyzed the chloroplast genomes of 20 Saxifraga sect. Ciliatae species and found that chloroplast genomes are generally conserved, with three highly variable regions: psbI-trnS, petG-trnW, and gene ycf1. Phylogenetic analyses (ML and BI) supported the monophyly of Saxifraga sect. Ciliatae, identifying three main clades. Genes cemA, infA and psbB were found to be associated with high-altitude adaptation. Furthermore, psbB may have undergone intracellular gene transfer and exhibited different selective pressures between the transcriptome and chloroplast genome.
