Identification, characterization, and expression profiling of the bHLH gene family in Beta vulgaris.
Article in BMC plant biology, 2025. 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
backgroundBasic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) is one of the largest families of transcription factors in plants, animals, and microorganisms and plays important complex physiological role in plant growth and development, metabolic regulation, and environmental stress. With the development of bioinformatics, bHLH transcription factor families have been continuously identified and analyzed, but the bHLH family in Beta vulgaris has not been previously analyzed.
resultsUsing whole-genome sequencing data from B. vulgaris, we identified 96 BvbHLH genes with relatively large differences in physicochemical properties that were unevenly distributed across nine chromosomes. A phylogenetic developmental tree was constructed using the BvbHLH and AtbHLH proteins, which were ultimately categorized into 21 subgroups and one unclassified group. The gene structure, conserved motifs, gene duplication events, and evolutionary relationships of the 96 BvbHLH genes were analyzed using various bioinformatics approaches. The results showed that motifs 1 and 2 were widely distributed in BvbHLHs, had highly conserved gene structures within the same subfamily, presence of four tandem duplication events, and six pairs of segmental duplication events, and were more closely homologous to dicotyledonous plants. We also analyzed the tissue-specific expression of 12 BvbHLH genes during B. vulgaris maturity and their responses to eight abiotic stresses using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction.
conclusionsBioinformatics analysis of the gene structure, evolutionary relationship, and expression pattern of the B. vulgaris bHLH gene family could help understanding better the evolution of the bHLH gene family as well as screening candidate genes in B. vulgaris.
