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

Autophagy, a conserved catabolic process that degrades and recycles intracellular components, plays a pivotal role in maintaining plant growth, development, and stress tolerance. Emerging evidence indicates that autophagy is tightly interconnected with phytohormone signaling networks, which coordinate plant physiological processes through transcriptional and metabolic regulation. Recent studies have revealed a bidirectional regulatory relationship between these systems. Autophagy modulates phytohormone pathways by selectively degrading key signaling components, such as repressors in jasmonic acid signaling and regulators of abscisic acid responses, thereby fine-tuning hormonal outputs. Conversely, phytohormones including abscisic acid, ethylene, and salicylic acid can directly influence autophagy activity by controlling the expression of autophagy-related genes and thus the formation of autophagosomes. This dynamic crosstalk enables plants to integrate developmental programs with environmental cues. Here, we systematically summarize the most comprehensive and latest advances in our understanding of how autophagy and phytohormones coordinately regulate plant physiological processes. We also propose unresolved questions and future research directions to advance our knowledge of this essential regulatory network.
