Comprehensive genome-wide analysis of bHLH family genes in Nymphaea colorata and molecular characterization of NcTT8.
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 2 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
backgroundWater lilies (Nymphaea spp.) are important aquatic ornamental plants with significant research value in horticulture, ecosystem studies, and evolutionary biology. The basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors, one of the largest transcription factor families in plants, play pivotal roles in regulating plant growth and development, secondary metabolism, and stress responses.
resultsA total of 76 bHLH genes, including 5 MYC genes, were identified in N. colorata. Among these, 18 genes underwent segmental duplication, while five genes experienced tandem duplication. Natural selection was identified as the primary driver of codon usage bias in NcbHLH genes. Promoter analysis revealed multiple cis-acting elements associated with hormone responses and abiotic stress responses. Functional annotation suggested that several NcbHLH transcription factors may be involved in floral organ development, stress responses, and the jasmonic acid (JA) signaling pathway. Notably, NcMYC3, a homolog of TT8, was localized to the nucleus and demonstrated transcriptional activation activity.
conclusionsThis study systematically elucidates the evolutionary characteristics and functional properties of the N. colorata bHLH gene family, providing a foundation for further exploration of the regulatory mechanisms of bHLH transcription factors and their roles in anthocyanin biosynthesis.
