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

Cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD; EC 1.1.1.195) catalyses the last step in the synthesis of the monomeric precursors of lignin. Here, we demonstrate that the vascular expression pattern conferred by the Eucalyptus gunnii EgCAD2 promoter in transgenic poplar (Populus tremula x Populus alba) is conserved in another perennial woody angiosperm of economic interest (Vitis vinifera L.), as well as in a model herbaceous plant (Nicotiana tabacum L.). Furthermore, promoter deletion analysis performed in both tobacco and poplar allowed us to identify the proximal region [-340/-124] as essential for vascular cambium/xylem-specific expression whereas the [-124/+117] region was shown to contain cis element-driving activity in phloem fibres. Interestingly, the [-340/-124] fragment contains an AC-rich cis-acting element present in numerous genes of the phenylpropanoid pathway expressed in xylem tissues, and known as a consensus Myb transcription factor binding site, suggesting that common Myb sites may provide a mechanism by which different steps of phenylpropanoid metabolism are coordinately regulated and expressed in vascular tissues. We have also shown in both tobacco and poplar that the EgCAD2 promoter is inducible by wounding and the cis-elements responsible for wounding responsiveness are located in the distal promoter region. Taken together, our data suggest that the mechanisms controlling developmental and wounding inducible expression of the EgCAD2 promoter are conserved among perennial woody and annual herbaceous plant species enabling us now to investigate in depth the transcriptional regulation of the EgCAD2 promoter in tobacco.
