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

Alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) RNAs 1 and 2 encode the replicase proteins P1 and P2, respectively, whereas RNA 3 encodes the movement protein and the coat protein (CP). When RNAs 1 and 2 were transiently expressed from a T-DNA vector (R12 construct) by agroinfiltration of Nicotiana benthamiana, the infiltrated leaves accumulated minus-strand RNAs 1 and 2 and relatively small amounts of plus-strand RNAs. In addition, RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) activity could be detected in extracts of the infiltrated leaves. After transient expression of RNAs 1 and 2 with the 3'-untranslated regions (UTRs) of both RNAs deleted (R1Delta/2Delta construct), no replication of RNAs 1 and 2 was observed, while the infiltrated leaves supported replication of RNA 3 after inoculation of the leaves with RNA 3 or expression of RNA 3 from a T-DNA vector (R3 construct). No RdRp activity could be isolated from leaves infiltrated with the R1Delta/2Delta construct, although P1 and P2 sedimented in a region of a glycerol gradient where active RdRp was found in plants infiltrated with R12. RdRp activity could be isolated from leaves infiltrated with constructs R1Delta/2 (3'-UTR of RNA 1 deleted), R1/2Delta (3'-UTR of RNA 2 deleted), or R1Delta/2Delta plus R3. This demonstrates that the 3'-UTR of AMV RNAs is required for the formation of a complex with in vitro enzyme activity. RNAs 1 and 2 with the 3'-UTRs deleted were encapsidated into virions by CP expressed from RNA 3. This shows that the high-affinity binding site for CP at the 3'-termini of AMV RNAs is not required for assembly of virus particles.
