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

Fhb1 is the most widely used locus for Fusarium head blight (FHB) resistance in wheat, yet the mechanistic basis of its candidate gene, TaHRC, remains elusive. Here, we demonstrate that the protein from the resistant allele TaHRC-R localises to both the nucleus and cytoplasm, whereas the susceptible protein TaHRC-S is confined to the nucleus. Remarkably, only TaHRC-R triggered a reactive oxygen species (ROS) burst in planta, dependent on its extranuclear localisation. The N-terminal 21 amino acids that distinguish TaHRC-R from TaHRC-S were essential for its nuclear export and ROS induction. Within the nucleus, TaHRC-R formed heterodimers with TaHRC-S via its N-terminal 21 amino acids and central region, disrupting the formation of large, sparse TaHRC-S condensates and converting them into numerous smaller assemblies. These results reveal a dual, spatially coordinated mechanism whereby TaHRC-R promotes ROS production outside the nucleus while modulating nuclear condensate dynamics to counteract the susceptible allele. This compartmentalised functionality provides a molecular framework for Fhb1-mediated resistance and illustrates a novel paradigm of subcellular specialisation in plant immunity.
