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

The typical nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat (NLR) proteins, such as TIR-NBS-LRR (TNL) and CC-NBS-LRR (CNL), are known to be engaged in effector-triggered immunity (ETI). However, several atypical resistance (R) proteins with truncated NLR domains or with nonclassical domains are emerging to be key regulators in plant immunity. SMV resistance cluster 4 (SRC4) is an atypical NLR protein in soybean, distinguished by an N-terminal Domain (NTD)-TIR-shortened NBS oligomerization region (SNOR)-EF-hand (EFh) domain architecture. SRC4 lacks both NBS and LRR domains but retains basal antiviral activity through its TIR-SNOR region, with SNOR contributing to TIR-dependent antiviral activity and SRC4 self-association. The EFh domain recognizes coat protein (CP) of soybean mosaic virus (SMV) and serves as a Ca
