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

Normal progression of genetic recombination requires timely degradation of many proteins, but little is known about the proteolytic mechanism. The ARABIDOPSIS SKP1-LIKE1 (ASK1) protein is a component of the Skp1-Cullin-F-box-protein (SCF) ubiquitin ligases that target a variety of proteins for degradation via the 26S proteasome pathway. Previous studies indicate that the early defects of the mutant ask1-1 occur in a prophase-I period overlapping with the period of homologous recombination. We provide evidence in this report that ASK1 is predominately expressed from leptotene to pachytene, and negatively regulates recombination. First, the ASK1 transcript was found not to co-exist with that of its closest homolog ASK2 only during prophase I of male meiosis, suggesting that ASK1 is functionally non-redundant only in prophase I. Second, the peak level of an ASK1-green fluorescence protein (GFP) fusion protein expressed by an ASK1 promoter region occurred only from leptotene to pachytene. The ASK1-GFP in a dominant negative fashion resulted in abnormal tetrads resembling those of the ask1-1 mutant, supporting that the expression timing of the ASK1-GFP in male meiocytes reflects the expression timing of the endogenous ASK1. Lastly, using a marker for recombination events, a significant increase in recombination frequency was detected in plants heterozygous for ask1-1. These results indicate that ASK1 normally plays a repressive role in male recombination in Arabidopsis.
