Identification and characterization of the powdery mildew resistance in a spelt accession Lsy-93.
Article in BMC plant biology, 2025. 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
backgroundPowdery mildew, a widespread fungal disease caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt), seriously threatens the yield and quality of wheat. The most effective and sustainable approach to control this disease is utilizing resistance genes and unraveling their underlying molecular mechanisms. Spelt (Triticum aestivum ssp. Spelta, 2n = 6x = 42, AABBDD), an ancient hexaploid wheat subspecies, has emerged as a valuable genetic resource for enhancing powdery mildew resistance in modern wheat breeding programs.
resultsSpelt accession lsy-93 demonstrated resistance against powdery mildew at the whole-growth stage. Genetic analysis revealed that the seedling resistance is conferred by a single dominant gene, tentatively designated as PmLsy-93. Bulked segregant RNA sequencing (BSR-seq) and molecular markers positioned PmLsy-93 within a 1.5 cM (genetic) and 10.34 Mb (physical) interval on chromosome 2BL. Six genes were directly associated with disease resistance in this interval and hence were considered as the candidate genes for PmLsy-93. Furthermore, a total of 3,140 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified between the two bulks, with 2,214 down-regulated and 916 up-regulated ones relative to the susceptible bulk. The integration of gene ontology and kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes pathway analysis underscores the multifaceted roles of these DEGs in plant defense, stress response, and metabolic regulation. Then, expression pattern of six genes, encoding disease resistance protein, serine threonine-protein kinase, or protein kinase domain, were profiled with Bgt invasion, and analyzed their potential roles in immune pathway. Three closely linked or co-segregated markers were confirmed to be available for marker-assisted selection of PmLsy-93 in breeding programs.
conclusionsThis study successfully pinpointed critical genetic loci and candidate genes associated with powdery mildew resistance in the spelt wheat accession Lsy-93. The results provide valuable insights into plant-pathogen defense mechanisms and lay an foundation for subsequent molecular breeding efforts to enhance crop disease resistance.
