Integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis revealed the potential role of hesperetin in wheat resistance to leaf rust.
Article in BMC genomics, 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
backgroundNatural plant metabolites, such as flavonoids and lignin, exhibited safe and environmentally friendly roles in defending against pathogen attack. However, their functional roles in the interaction between wheat and Puccinia triticina (Pt) remained poorly characterized.
resultsIn this study, we integrated transcriptomic and quasi-targeted metabolomic analyses to systematically characterize differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and metabolites associated with the compatible and incompatible interactions between wheat and Pt. In the wheat-Pt interaction system, a total of 1,242 metabolites were identified, predominantly classified into amino acids and derivatives, flavonoids, and related compound classes. In the flavonoid and lignin biosynthesis-related pathways-namely, Flavonoid biosynthesis and Phenylpropanoid biosynthesis-significant differences were observed in both the accumulation levels of key metabolites and the expression of genes associated with their biosynthetic pathways. Notably, in the incompatible interaction, the expression of TaCAD, a gene implicated in syringyl lignin (S-lignin) biosynthesis, was significantly up-regulated. Gene regulatory network (GRN) analysis further suggested that transcription factors (TFs) including ERF, LBD, BBR-BPC, and C
conclusionsThese findings indicated that hesperetin may serve as a potential defense compound in wheat during the early stages of leaf rust infection, providing crucial insights for developing novel natural products and a theoretical foundation for genetic improvement in disease-resistant wheat breeding.
