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

backgroundMeloidogyne incognita is a major soil-borne pathogen in tobacco production, which severely restricts the sustainable development of the Chinese tobacco industry. At present, problems including the diminished disease resistance of mainstream tobacco cultivars and the scarcity of resistant germplasm resources have become increasingly pronounced, and thus the breeding of new tobacco varieties with high resistance to M. incognita has become an urgent priority. Previous studies have revealed that the tobacco germplasm SA1214 originating from South Africa displays extremely high resistance to root-knot nematodes in field trials, yet its specific resistance grade and the systematic physiological and biochemical mechanisms underlying this resistance remain unclear.

resultsThe results showed that SA1214 displayed strong resistance to M. incognita, with all its disease indices being significantly lower than those of susceptible cultivars such as Yunyan 87. This cultivar effectively inhibited the invasion by M. incognita and significantly delayed the late developmental process of the nematode post-infection. The giant cells at the infection sites exhibited characteristics of early vacuolization and disintegration, accompanied by the induction of plant defense responses including a prominent reactive oxygen species (ROS) burst and programmed cell death (PCD).

conclusionIn summary, SA1214 is a tobacco cultivar with favorable application prospects for resistance to M. incognita. This study provides technical support for in-depth investigations into the molecular mechanisms of tobacco nematode resistance and the breeding of disease-resistant tobacco cultivars, and also contributes to the green and sustainable development of the tobacco industry.
