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

Blaster cassettes are of significant value in functional genomics, as they represent tools with which to inactivate duplicated or homologous genes in an individual organism. We have constructed a novel blaster module which allows repeated gene deletion in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans. Because bacterial resistance marker cassettes are employed as flanking repeats in direct orientation, the blaster cassette is suited for recombinogenic engineering by ET cloning in Escherichia coli. The functionality of the blaster module was demonstrated by deleting the chorismate mutase-encoding gene aroC of A. nidulans, followed by marker rescue based on mitotic recombination. The resulting aroCDelta strains are auxotrophic for phenylalanine but not tyrosine, and display a limited capacity for fruit body formation and ascosporogenesis, which depends on the phenylalanine/tyrosine supply. The data support the notion that amino acid status has a strong impact on cleistothecium development in A. nidulans.
