Synergistic mechanisms of DGAT and PDAT in shaping triacylglycerol diversity: evolutionary insights and metabolic engineering strategies.
Review in Frontiers in plant science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Triacylglycerol (TAG), the primary storage lipid in plants, determines oil quality through its fatty acid composition. This review focuses on the biosynthesis of TAG, systematically analyzing the mechanistic similarities and differences between the acyl-CoA-dependent Kennedy pathway (catalyzed by the rate-limiting enzyme DGAT) and the acyl-CoA-independent pathway (regulated by the rate-limiting enzyme PDAT). By integrating functional studies, evolutionary analyses, and lipidomic data, we reveal the distinct substrate preferences of DGAT and PDAT, their differential contributions to TAG synthesis, and their synergistic mechanisms in shaping triacylglycerol diversity. This work establishes a theoretical framework for the targeted engineering of plant oils with enhanced nutritional and industrial value through optimized fatty acid profiles.
