Beyond red/far-red sensing: phytochrome perception of the marine light field by microalgae.
Review in The New phytologist, 2026. 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
Phytochromes (PHYs) are a major group of photoreceptors, described as red and far-red light sensors in land plants. Recent genomic and metagenomic explorations have revealed the presence of PHYs also in various eukaryotic microalgae originating from distinct endosymbiotic events. Growing evidence indicates that these PHYs are spectrally and functionally tuned to shorter wavelengths, which are prevalent in the aquatic environments as depth increases. Investigations using emerging phytoplankton model species, along with environmental surveys, are uncovering new PHY-mediated responses that likely influence their growth and distribution in marine environments. This Tansley Insight explores the implications of these discoveries for understanding the evolution and functional significance of this major photoreceptor class in the upper ocean, where light drives both energy and information flow.
