Functional conservation and diversity of phytochrome B and its potential applications in crop improvement.
Review in Plant communications, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Phytochrome, first identified in the 1950s as a photoreceptor that senses red and far-red light, plays a crucial role in various aspects of plant growth and development. Numerous recent studies have revealed that phytochrome B (phyB) functions as both a photoreceptor and a thermosensor, integrating environmental light and temperature signals with internal hormonal, developmental, and metabolic cues to coordinate diverse cellular responses. As a core regulator, phyB has become one of the most extensively studied genes in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. More recently, research on phyB has extended to major staple crops and vegetables, including maize, rice, wheat, tomato, and cucumber, in which it modulates critical agronomic traits such as plant architecture, flowering time, density tolerance, and yield. This review summarizes recent advances in phyB research, examines phyB conservation and diversity across species, and explores future prospects for using this information to develop innovative breeding strategies for crop improvement.
