Phytohormones and Shoot Branching: A Mini-Review of Molecular Regulatory Networks and Mechanisms.
Review in Plants (Basel, Switzerland), 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
As a crucial component of plant architecture, shoot branching significantly enhances photosynthetic efficiency and optimizes the source-sink allocation of photosynthetic products, which directly impacts crop productivity. The formation of lateral branches is co-regulated by various internal and external factors, including genetic factors, phytohormones, metabolic, and environmental factors. In this review, we provide a mechanistic overview of the key regulatory events involved in axillary meristem (AM) formation and lateral branch development, emphasizing the significant regulatory roles of phytohormones (such as auxins, cytokinins, strigolactones, brassinosteroids, gibberellins, abscisic acid, and other phytohormones) in this process. Furthermore, we highlight the transcription factors SHOOT MERISTEM-LESS (STM) and BRANCHED1 (BRC1) as central hubs that integrate multiple hormonal signals to control AM initiation and lateral branch development, respectively. By elucidating the regulatory mechanisms of these key nodes, we propose future research directions that can provide a foundation for shaping ideal crop plant architecture through genetic engineering and breeding strategies.
