Dose-dependent γ-radiation effects on seed vigor and genomic mutation patterns in Shuidong mustard (Brassica juncea var. multiceps).
Article in BMC genomics, 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
backgroundShuidong mustard (Brassica juncea var. multiceps) is an important leafy vegetable in South China, yet its production is frequently constrained by seasonal drought stress during autumn sowing. Gamma (γ) radiation can induce genetic variation to potentially improve seed vigor and stress resilience. However, the dose-dependent effects of γ-radiation on seed physiological traits and genome-wide mutations in this crop remain unclear, limiting its effective application in mutation breeding.

conclusionThis study delineates the dose‑dependent physiological and genomic responses of Shuidong mustard to γ‑radiation. A dose of 971 Gy (LD₅₀) is proposed as a practical benchmark for mutation breeding, balancing the introduction of genetic diversity with acceptable physiological impact. Our results provide a genomic foundation for optimizing radiation‑based breeding strategies to enhance stress resilience, while also advancing the mechanistic understanding of DNA damage response and genome stability in plants.
