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

The moss Physcomitrella patens is so far the only plant species in which it is possible for nuclear genes to be modified by homologous recombination at a reasonably efficiency. Here we describe the use of homologous recombination for another moss, Ceratodon purpureus. Our approach is based on the repair of the ptr116 mutant allele. In this mutant, codon 31 of the heme oxygenase gene CpHO1 is mutated to a stop codon. Heme oxygenase is necessary for the conversion of heme to biliverdin, the precursor of the phytochrome chromophore. Thus, in ptr116 the phytochrome-mediated responses of phototropism, chlorophyll accumulation and branching are lost. Protoplast transformation with DNA encoding the wild-type protein resulted in a rescue of 0.8% of regenerated protoplasts. In about half of the analyzed lines, formation of CpHO1 concatemers was observed at the CpHO1 locus, whereas in the other half, the mutant CpHO1 gene was replaced by a single DNA copy. This gene repair led to the exchange of single bases, and thus provides the first demonstration of efficient site-directed mutagenesis in a plant nuclear genome. Our studies also revealed an effective mechanism for gene inactivation in Ceratodon. When wild-type protoplasts were transformed with intact or modified CpHO1 genes, approximately 40% of regenerated protoplasts showed the ptr phenotype.
