CiPCS regulated by CiMYB4 enhances the tolerance of Chrysanthemum indicum to cadmium stress.
Article in Plant cell reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
key messageThe transcription factor CiMYB4 enhances the tolerance of Chrysanthemum indicum to cadmium stress by regulating the CiPCS gene and promoting the synthesis of phytochelatins. Phytochelatins (PCs) are crucial for enhancing plant tolerance and detoxifying heavy metals such as cadmium (Cd). However, the functional roles and regulatory mechanisms of phytochelatin synthase (PCS), the enzyme responsible for PC synthesis in chrysanthemum, remain largely unexplored. In this study, we successfully isolated and cloned a PCS gene from Chrysanthemum indicum, designated as CiPCS. Subcellular localization analysis revealed that CiPCS is localized in both the cytoplasm and nucleus, and Cd stress significantly upregulated its expression. The overexpression of CiPCS enhanced the tolerance of C. indicum to Cd by increasing the activity of antioxidant enzymes and reducing membrane lipid peroxidation. Further analysis indicated that CiPCS is directly regulated by the transcription factor CiMYB4, promoting the synthesis and accumulation of plant chelating peptides (PCs), enhancing the chelation of Cd ions and thereby reducing the toxic effects of Cd on cells. In summary, our study elucidates the regulatory mechanism by which C. indicum responds to Cd stress.
