Salinity Stress Induces Phase Separation of Plant BARENTSZ to Form Condensates.
Article in Rice (New York, N.Y.), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Phase separation (PS) of BARENTSZ (BTZ), a core member of the exon-junction complex (EJC), is involved in various physiological and developmental processes in animals. However, less is known about plant equivalents. Here, we demonstrated that the loss of function of Oryza sativa BTZ genes (OsBTZs) reduced rice tolerance to salinity stress. Moreover, OsBTZ proteins underwent PS independent of other core members of EJC, forming condensates under salt stress. OsBTZs may recruit proteins that play roles in the salt tolerance response to form cytoplasmic condensates, which act as stress granules. The predicted prion-like domain (PrLD), that originated ancestrally and is functionally conserved, was demonstrated to be key to the PS of OsBTZs upon NaCl treatment. This work revealed a new role for plant BTZs through an evolutionarily conserved mechanism-PS-in the formation of condensates in response to salinity stress, thus providing new insights into the adaptive evolution of plant BTZs under abiotic stress.
