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

backgroundGrowth-regulating factors (GRFs) are plant-specific transcription factors involved in growth, development, and stress responses. Mikania micrantha, a highly invasive weed, displays rapid growth and adaptability, yet the GRF gene family in this species remains largely unexplored.

resultsWe identified and characterized 16 GRF genes in M. micrantha, analyzing their phylogeny, gene structure, collinearity, and expression patterns. These genes were classified into six subfamilies and showed conserved synteny with GRFs from Arabidopsis thaliana and Asteraceae species, with all gene pairs under purifying selection. Expression profiling revealed high transcript levels of most MmiGRFs in stem tips and young tissues. Hormone treatments demonstrated that MmiGRFs responded differentially to GA

conclusionThis study provides the first comprehensive analysis of the M. micrantha GRF gene family, revealing their potential roles in rapid growth and environmental adaptation. These findings offer molecular insights into the species' invasive capacity and support future strategies for its control.
