GmMADS17, a MADS-box transcription factor, promotes flowering in soybean.
Article in BMC plant biology, 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
backgroundSoybean is an important crop used for oil, grain and feed. Due to its strong photoperiod sensitivity, flowering is a critical developmental process regulated by multiple genes that determines reproductive success and yield of soybean. Therefore, identifying regulatory genes controlling flowering is of great importance for developing widely adapted and high-yielding soybean varieties.
resultsIn this study, we identified a soybean MADS-box transcription factor gene GmMADS17 through transcriptome analysis of two extreme flowering phenotype families derived from a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population of Qihuang 34 and Jidou 17. Functional validation using both overexpression and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated mutagenesis demonstrated that GmMADS17 promotes flowering in soybean. Yeast two-hybrid, bimolecular fluorescence complementation assays and Co-immunoprecipitation assay further revealed that GmMADS17 could interact with 3 GmAP1 proteins (GmAP1a, c and d). In addition, genetic diversity analysis indicated strong selection at the GmMADS17 locus during soybean domestication, characterized by the near fixation of GmMADS17-Hap2, which might be associated with early-flowering in cultivated soybeans.
conclusionsThe results of this study may provide strategic genetic insights for molecular breeding programs aimed at enhancing soybean adaptation.
