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

Brassinosteroids (BRs) are key regulators of plant growth and development. The BR receptor BRASSINOSTEROID-INSENSITIVE 1 (BRI1) is broadly expressed across root tissues, yet classical genetic studies suggested that BR signaling can also act non-cell-autonomously. Nevertheless, recent advances-based on tissue-specific CRISPR, state-of-the-art imaging and single-cell transcriptomics-reveal that BR perception operates largely cell-autonomous and strongly context-dependent. Here, we also review emerging evidence demonstrating that BR signaling is spatially confined and mechanistically integrated with other signaling pathways to regulate tissue-specific developmental outcomes. Rather than acting as a uniform growth trigger, BR functions as a modular, locally tuned regulator coordinating plant development via both canonical and non-canonical pathways.
