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

Tomato bushy stunt virus (TBSV) and other tombusviruses encode a p19 protein (P19), which is a suppressor of RNAi. Wild-type TBSV or p19-defective mutants initially show a similar infection course in Nicotiana benthamiana, but the absence of an active P19 results in viral RNA degradation followed by recovery from infection. P19 homodimers sequester 21-nt virus-derived duplex siRNAs, and it is thought that this prevents the programming of an antiviral RNA-induced silencing complex to avoid viral RNA degradation. Here we report on chromatographic fractionation (gel filtration, ion exchange, and hydroxyapatite) of extracts from healthy or infected Nicotiana benthamiana plants in combination with in vitro assays for ribonuclease activity and detection of TBSV-derived siRNAs. Only extracts of plants infected with p19 mutants provided a source of sequence-nonspecific but ssRNA-targeted in vitro ribonuclease activity that coeluted with components of a wide molecular weight range. In addition, we isolated a discrete approximately 500-kDa protein complex that contained approximately 21-nt TBSV-derived siRNAs and that exhibited ribonuclease activity that was TBSV sequence-preferential, ssRNA-specific, divalent cation-dependent, and insensitive to a ribonuclease inhibitor. We believe that this study provides biochemical evidence for a virus-host system that infection in the absence of a fully active RNAi suppressor induces ssRNA-specific ribonuclease activity, including that conferred by a RNA-induced silencing complex, which is likely the cause for the recovery of plants from infection.
