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

Plant mobile RNAs-including small RNAs (miRNAs, siRNAs), mRNAs, lncRNAs, and tRNA fragments-function as systemic signaling molecules that traverse cellular, tissue, and species boundaries to coordinate plant adaptation to environmental stresses. Here, we summarize the critical roles of mobile RNAs in mediating systemic adaptation to abiotic challenges and biotic interactions. Crucially, we highlight the diverse transport mechanisms enabling their movement and discuss the emerging functional versatility of mobile RNAs, which extends beyond transcriptional regulation to encompass epigenetic modifications, resource allocation, and cross-species communication. These fundamental insights are driving transformative applications: Mobile RNAs provide the foundation for developing systemic RNAi-based biopesticides and are being integrated with CRISPR-Cas technologies to overcome delivery barriers and enable heritable, transgene-free genome editing in crops. Understanding and harnessing mobile RNA networks offers unprecedented potential for engineering resilient crops and implementing precise, sustainable crop protection strategies to address global food security challenges.
