Thermosensory reconfiguration of the auxin transcriptional pathway to drive root cell growth.
Article in Nature communications, 2026. 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
Elevated temperatures enhance plant root growth. We find that cell elongation significantly contributes to this response. While mutations in the auxin transcriptional pathway impair warmth-induced cell elongation, exogenous auxin inhibits this growth. Intriguingly, warmth increases auxin levels and the nuclear accumulation of TIR1/AFB2/AFB3, alongside Aux/IAA stabilisation. This apparent paradox is explained by the concurrent increase in nuclear AFB1, which stabilises Aux/IAAs and promotes cell elongation. Notably, despite enhancing Aux/IAA stability, warmth also promotes ARF transcriptional activity. ARF7/19 are essential for warmth-induced cell growth and its inhibition by exogenous auxin. Warmth directly modulates ARF7/19 by reducing oligomerisation and cytoplasmic condensation, thereby enhancing their nuclear accumulation. This mechanism effectively repurposes the auxin pathway to regulate root cell growth in response to temperature.
