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

Frigida (FRI) plays diverse roles in regulating plant flowering and drought tolerance. The biological importance of FRIGIDA-like proteins (FRL) has been well established in Arabidopsis and soybean; however, systemic analysis of the FRL gene in rapeseed in response to phytohormones is still in its infancy. The present study predicted 28 FRL proteins in rapeseed that were unevenly distributed across the entire chromosome set of rapeseeds. Phylogenetically, all BnaFRL proteins were clustered into four distinct clades along with Arabidopsis, rice, and soybean. Our study indicated that rapeseed BnaFRL arose from segmental duplication alongside single tandem duplication events. Moreover, gene structure analysis, such as Frigida domain presence, intron-exon distribution, and conserved domain analysis, validated the phylogenetic conservation of all the BnaFRL genes. Additionally, promoter analysis revealed several cis-regulatory elements related to hormones, suggesting their significant role in rapeseed hormone response mechanisms. Spatial expression across different tissues exhibited variable expression, whereas subcellular localization and temporal expression of selected BnaFRLs to exogenous hormone application (IAA, ABA, and GA) further supported their role in hormone responsiveness in rapeseed. In summary, our comprehensive analysis offers valuable insights into the evolution and potential functions of BnaFRL genes, emphasizing their significance in phytohormone responses, and establishing a foundation for further research on the BnaFRL family.
