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

Waterlogging stress severely impacts the yield and quality of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), necessitating the elucidation of tolerance mechanisms through a comparative analysis of contrasting varieties. To elucidate the mechanisms of tolerance, this study employed an integrative approach combining physiological, transcriptomic, and metabolomic analyses to compare the waterlogging-tolerant genotype D199 with the sensitive genotype N1983. Physiological profiling indicated that D199 exhibited 24% higher superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and 94% higher catalase (CAT) activity, alongside a 7% reduction in superoxide anion accumulation compared to N1983 under stress conditions, effectively mitigating reactive oxygen species (ROS) damage. Integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic profiling has revealed three synergistic adaptation mechanisms: the upregulation of AHP4 (3.0-fold), associated with cytokinin signaling pathways, enhances the leaf’s antioxidant capacity via the activation of RR1/RR2. Additionally, auxin biosynthesis genes IAA14 (2.9-fold) and GH3.6 (2.2-fold) facilitate root remodeling through the induction of SAUR4/5/78 (3.6-4.0-fold). Crucially, the spatiotemporal coordination between auxin and cytokinin pathways orchestrates aerial ROS scavenging and root plasticity, involving co-expressed genes SAUR (auxin-responsive) and AHP4 (cytokinin-related). This systematic decoding of the hormone crosstalk network identifies actionable breeding targets (IAA14, AHP4, SAUR78) for the development of waterlogging-resilient cultivars.
