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

key messageThis study elucidates the functional characteristics of VfSBP4, VfSBP10, VfSBP12 and VfSBP17 under disease resistance and abiotic stress tolerance. It provides key genetic targets for the molecular breeding of stress-tolerant faba bean varieties. As an important food crop worldwide, faba bean (Vicia faba L.) production is limited by various stresses. The SQUAMOSA promoter binding protein (SBP) transcription factors play essential roles in regulating plant biological processes. However, knowledge regarding Vicia faba SBPs remains limited. In this study, 21 members of the Vicia faba SBP gene family were identified and designated as VfSBPs, characterized as nucleus-localized unstable hydrophilic proteins. Comprehensive analysis indicates that VfSBPs contain numerous elements related to disease resistance and abiotic stress tolerance. Functional analysis indicates that VfSBP4 and VfSBP17 influence plant stress resistance by reducing immune-regulatory responses and disrupting reactive oxygen species (ROS) homeostasis, thereby promoting pathogen infection. Conversely, VfSBP10 and VfSBP12 enhance resistance by inhibiting pathogen infection and maintaining ROS balance. Under drought and salt stress conditions, VfSBP4 and VfSBP17 overexpression increased stomatal aperture and water loss, exacerbating leaf wilting, whereas VfSBP10 and VfSBP12 overexpression reduced water loss and ROS accumulation, improving stress tolerance.
