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

Uniparental activity of ribosomal RNA genes (rDNA) in interspecific hybrids is known as nucleolar dominance (ND). To see if difference in rDNA intergenic spacers (IGS) might be correlated with ND, we have used artificial Solanum allopolyploids and back-crossed lines. Combining fluorescence in situ hybridization and quantification of the level of the rRNA precursor by real-time PCR, we demonstrated that an expression hierarchy exists: In leaves, roots, and petals of the respective allopolyploids, rDNA of S lycopersicum (tomato) dominates over rDNA of S. tuberosum (potato), whereas rDNA of S. tuberosum dominates over that of the wild species S. bulbocastanum . Also in a monosomic addition line carrying only one NOR-bearing chromosome of tomato in a potato background the dominance effect was maintained. These results demonstrate that there is possible correlation between transcriptional dominance and number of conservative elements downstream of the transcription start in the Solanum rDNA. In anthers and callus tissues under-dominant rDNA was slightly (S. lycopersicum/S. tuberosum) or strongly (S. tuberosum/S. bulbocastanum) expressed indicating developmental modulation of ND. In leaves and petals, repression of the respective parental rDNA correlated with cytosine methylation at certain sites conserved in the IGS, whereas activation of under-dominant rDNA in anthers and callus tissues was not accompanied by considerable changes of the methylation pattern.
