Differential expression of K+ channels between guard cells and subsidiary cells within the maize stomatal complex.

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.
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
Grass stomata are characterized by dumbbell-shaped guard cells forming a complex with a pair of specialized epidermal cells, the subsidiary cells. Stomatal movement is accomplished by a reversible exchange of potassium and chloride between these two cell types. To gain insight into the molecular machinery involved in K+ transport within the stomatal complex of Zea mays, we determined the spatial and temporal expression pattern of potassium channels in the maize leaf. KZM2 and ZORK were isolated and identified as new members of the plant Shaker K+ channel family. Northern blot analysis identified fully developed leaves as the predominant site of KZM2 expression. Following enzymatic digestion and separation of leaf tissue into epidermal, mesophyll, and vascular fractions, KZM2 and ZORK transcripts were localized in the epidermis. Using a collection of individually isolated guard cell or subsidiary cell protoplasts, ZORK transcripts were found in both cell types while KZM2 was exclusively expressed in the guard cell population. The previously identified K+ channel genes ZMK1 and KZM1 were expressed in subsidiary cells and guard cells, respectively, whereas ZMK2 transcripts were not detected. These data indicate that the interaction between subsidiary cells and guard cells is based on overlapping as well as differential expression of K+ channels in the two cell types of the maize stomatal complex.
