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

Recent genomic projects reveal that about half of the gene repertoire in plant genomes is made up by multigene families. In this paper, a set of structural and phylogenetic analyses have been applied to compare the differently sized nicotianamine synthase (NAS) gene families in barley and rice. Nicotianamine acts as a chelator of iron and other heavy metals and plays a key role in uptake, phloem transport and cytoplasmic distribution of iron, challenging efforts for the breeding of iron-efficient crop plants. Nine barley NAS genes have been mapped, and co-linearity of flanking genes in barley and rice was determined. The combined analyses reveal that the NAS multigene family members in barley originated through at least one duplication event that occurred before the divergence of rice and barley. Additional duplications appear to have occurred within each of the species. Although we detected no evidence for positive selection of recently duplicated genes within species, codon-based tests revealed evidence for positive selection having contributed to the divergence of some amino acids. The integrated comparative and phylogenetic analysis improved our current view of NAS gene family evolution, might facilitate the functional characterization of individual members and is applicable to other multigene families.
