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

Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) severely impairs plant growth, leading to significant economic losses in the production of various Solanaceae crops, including tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) and pepper (Caspicum annuum). To investigate TMV resistance mechanisms, we analyzed the transcriptomic and metabolomic profiles of susceptible (K326) and resistant (R_K326) tobacco lines. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that the number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in R_K326 was about 2 times higher than in K326 at 9 days post-inoculation (dpi), suggesting a greater involvement of defense-related genes in the resistant line. KEGG pathway analysis of DEGs highlighted the significant enrichment of biotic-stress related pathways that were specifically activated in R_K326 line following TMV infection. Notably, the flavonoid biosynthesis pathway was enriched in both transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses of R_K326. At 9 dpi, four flavonoid compounds accumulated at significantly higher levels in R_K326 compared to K326. Among them, naringin was demonstrated as a key player in TMV resistance by exogenous treatment and western blot analysis of TMV coat proteins. Two genes encoding the rate-limiting enzymes of naringin biosynthesis, asm_5.4770 and asm_7.408, were screened as candidate genes according to their high expression levels in R_K326. Additionally, Salicylic acid (SA) biosynthesis-related genes were up-regulated in R_K326, accompanied by the significant accumulation of SA levels. These results suggest that both the naringin and SA positively regulate tobacco resistance to TMV, providing insights into the response mechanisms of tobacco to TMV infection and new targets for TMV resistance breeding in Solanaceae crops.
