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

backgroundSorghum has a strong tolerance to multi-abiotic stresses such as drought, heat, poor soil fertility, and salinity, yet its growth and development are significantly affected by extreme abiotic stresses, ultimately reducing grain yield. Peroxidase (POD) proteins, which are members of the oxidoreductase enzyme family, play an important role in protecting plants against multi-abiotic stress. However, this gene family has rarely been studied in sorghum.

resultsIn this study, 114 POD gene members (SbPODs) were identified in sorghum and distributed unevenly throughout 10 chromosomes. Phylogenetic analysis clustered these genes into 12 subgroups. Gene structure and motif analyses showed the structural and functional diversity among the subgroups. These genes have undergone 16 segmental duplication and 32 tandem duplication events, indicating that both segmental and tandem duplications are major contributors to the expansion of the SbPOD gene family. Most duplicated SbPODs have undergone purifying selection with limited functional divergence during duplication events. Compared with maize, rice, and Arabidopsis, SbPOD gene family not only occurred the duplication on the whole-genome level, but also existed independent duplication events. The qRT-PCR results showed twenty SbPOD genes exhibited differential expression patterns in leaves under NaCl, H

conclusionsTotally, 114 POD gene members were identified in sorghum by a series of bioinformatics analysis. The expression patterns of some members of SbPOD gene family exhibited significantly difference under various stress conditions. These findings not only provide valuable insights into the evolutionary dynamics of the SbPOD gene family, but also lay a foundation for further studies on the functions of POD genes.
