Protein Phosphorylation: An Essential Role in Shoot Apical Meristem Homeostasis.
Review in Plants (Basel, Switzerland), 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
The shoot apical meristem (SAM) serves as the cellular source of aboveground plant development and is precisely regulated by a complex interplay of genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors. Central to this regulation is the CLAVATA3 (CLV3)-WUSCHEL (WUS) negative feedback loop, which maintains SAM homeostasis by balancing stem cell proliferation and differentiation. Among the diverse regulatory mechanisms, reversible protein phosphorylation, which is mediated by protein kinases and phosphatases, has emerged as a key posttranslational modification that integrates internal and external signals to modulate SAM activity. This review summarizes recent advances in understanding the roles of kinases and phosphatases in SAM maintenance, with a particular focus on phosphorylation-mediated control of the CLV3-WUS pathway and associated signaling networks. By synthesizing these molecular insights, we aim to provide a comprehensive reference for deciphering the regulatory mechanisms underlying SAM homeostasis. A deeper understanding of SAM regulation not only advances fundamental knowledge of plant developmental biology but also holds significant potential for improving crop architecture and agricultural productivity.
