Inhibition of phytoalexin biosynthesis in elicitor-treated tobacco cell-suspension cultures by calcium/calmodulin antagonists.
Article in Plant physiology, 1992. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
A role for calcium/calcium-binding proteins in a mechanism of signaling elicitor-inducible phytoalexin biosynthesis was investigated. Two classes of calcium/calmodulin antagonists, phenothiazines and naphthalenesulfonamides, inhibited sesquiterpene phytoalexin accumulation in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) cell-suspension cultures when added 1 h before elicitor. The antagonists also inhibited the induction of sesquiterpene cyclase enzyme activity, a key regulatory enzyme for sesquiterpene biosynthesis. The antagonists suppressed the induction of sesquiterpene cyclase only if added before or simultaneously with elicitor. Additionally, the antagonists inhibited (a) accumulation of the cyclase protein as measured in immunoblots; (b) the in vivo synthesis rate of the cyclase protein, measured as the incorporation of [(35)S]methionine into immunoprecipitable cyclase protein; and (c) the cyclase mRNA translational activity, measured as the incorporation of [(35)S]methionine into immunoprecipitable cyclase protein synthesized by in vitro translation of RNA isolated from antagonist-treated, elicitor-induced cells. In contrast, elicitor-inducible phenylalanine ammonia lyase enzyme activity, the level of the enzyme protein, the in vivo synthesis rate, and the mRNA translational activity were not affected by any of the antagonist treatments. Uptake and incorporation of [(35)S]methionine into total cellular proteins and total in vitro translation products were also not indiscriminately altered by the antagonist treatments. The current results suggest that calcium and/or calmodulin-like proteins may be elements of a signal transduction pathway mediating elicitor-induced accumulation of phytoalexins in tobacco.
