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

High temperature has posed significant challenges to global agriculture, markedly leading to reduced fertility and yield losses in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). Therefore, thermotolerance-conferring genes and loci are needed to further improve cultivated tomatoes. Here we identified an E3 ubiquitin ligase SlRNF185, containing a C3HC4-type RING-HC domain, that confers tomato pollen thermotolerance. As a predominant ubiquitination member, SlRNF185 could degrade the SlVPS29 protein induced by heat stress to enhance thermotolerance. Mechanistically, we found that a heat shock transcription factor SlHSFA7 dramatically activates the expression of SlRNF185 under heat stress and acts as a positive regulator of tomato pollen thermotolerance. Collectively, our findings reveal that a SlHSFA7-SlRNF185 genetic module regulates ubiquitination-mediated degradation of SlVPS29 under heat stress, providing the strategy for breeding thermotolerance tomato varieties.
