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

Gene BoGSL-PRO is associated with presence of 3-carbon side-chain glucosinolates (GSL). This gene is a member of the methylthioalkylmalate synthase (MAM) gene family. A BAC clone of Brassica oleracea, B21F5, containing this gene, was sequenced, annotated and compared to its corresponding region in Arabidopsis thaliana. Twelve protein-coding genes and 10 transposable elements were found in this clone. The corresponding region in A. thaliana chromosome I has 14 genes and no transposable elements. Analysis of MAM gene family in both species, which also include genes controlling 4-carbon side-chain GSL, separated the genes in two groups based on exon numbers and function. Phylogenetic analysis of the amino acid sequences encoded by these genes suggest that these two groups were produced by a duplication that must have occurred before the divergence of the Rosid and Asterid lineages of angiosperms. Comparison with putative orthologs from several prokaryotes further suggest that the members of the gene family with 10 exons, which encode proteins involved in 4-carbon side-chain GSL biosynthesis, were derived via truncation of the 3' end from ancestral genes more similar in length to those with 12 exons, which encode proteins involved in 3-carbon side-chain GSL biosynthesis. Lower gene density in B. oleracea compared to A. thaliana is due in part to presence of transposable elements (TE) mostly in inter-genic regions.
