The mechanism and application of the selenium hyperaccumulator Cardamine hupingshanensis: status and challenges.
Review in Annals of botany, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Cardamine hupingshanensis is a selenium (Se) hyperaccumulating plant discovered in 2008 in China. This comprehensive review summarizes the state-of-the-art progress on the molecular mechanisms underlying Se hyperaccumulation in C. hupingshanensis. The direct mechanisms encompass the key genes involved in the Se accumulation, localization and transformation processes in the plant. Homocysteine S-methyltransferase (HMT) and methionine S-methyltransferase (MMT) may contribute to Se hyperaccumulation in C. hupingshanensis, supported by the detection of selenolanthionine in the water extraction fraction, and selenocystine and selenomethylcysteine in the proteolytic hydrolysate fraction. Indirect mechanisms, such as structural adaptations, sequestration/transportation, sulphur conservation, oxidative stress control, protein degradation and interactions with rhizosphere/endophytic microbiota, may also contribute to its Se hyperaccumulation. This review also explores the applications of Se biofortification and phytoremediation, highlighting the potential of C. hupingshanensis in enhancing Se content in crops and remediating Se-contaminated environments. Further investigation is needed into the challenges related to C. hupingshanensis, focusing on the pathways and processes of Se accumulation and transport within the rhizosphere soil-plant-air system, comparative studies that have used a multi-omics strategy to delve deeper into the molecular mechanisms of Se hyperaccumulation under various Se speciation treatments, the role of core microbiota, potential applications in food processing and agriculture, and the synergistic remediation of Se and other heavy metal contaminants.
