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

In Brassica species, alloplasmic lines displaying cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) are established by combining the nucleus from B. rapa with the cytoplasm from Diplotaxis muralis. The failure to observe restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) patterns of mitochondrial genes ( coxII, coxIII, atpA, atp6, atp9, cob, nad3, nad6, and nad9) between alloplasmic lines of B. rapa and D. muralis indicates that introgression of the B. rapa nucleus into the cytoplasm of D. muralis does not cause any alterations in the structure of the mitochondrial genome. To investigate how the nucleus influences the cytoplasm, we examined the expression of mitochondrial genes in the leaves of euplasmic and alloplasmic lines of B. rapa and D. muralis. We detected higher levels of mitochondrial gene mRNAs in alloplasmic lines of B. rapa than in D. muralis. Patterns of mitochondrial gene transcription also differed among the alloplasmic lines of B. rapa. Thus, expression of mitochondrial genes in alloplasmic lines of B. rapa differed in the leaves compared to D. muralis. Overexpression of mitochondrial genes may be the result of novel interactions between the nucleus and the mitochondria in alloplasmic lines of B. rapa. Further study is necessary to clarify how these phenomena are involved in CMS.
