High diversity of plastidial promoters in Arabidopsis thaliana.

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
Arabidopsis thaliana is well established as a model plant in modern plant biology. However, remarkably few details are known about plastidial promoters in Arabidopsis. Here, we report on the identification and analyses of sequences at transcription start sites of selected genes. The genes encoded by the plastome of higher plants are transcribed by a plastid-encoded (PEP) and a nuclear-encoded RNA plastid polymerase (NEP). To discriminate between NEP and PEP promoters we compared the 5'-ends of transcripts from chlorophyll-deficient Arabidopsis plants, which were grown on prokaryotic translation inhibitor spectinomycin to inhibit biosynthesis of PEP, with those of untreated plants. Using 5'-RACE combined with enzymatic treatment of RNAs to recognize primary and secondary 5'-ends, we unambiguously identified transcription initiation sites of the Arabidopsis accD, atpB, atpI, rpoB, rps4, rps15, and ycf1 genes. Comparison of plastidial promoters from tobacco and Arabidopsis revealed a high diversity, which may also apply to other plants. Furthermore, the diversity in individual promoter usage in different plants suggests that there are species-specific solutions for attaining control over gene expression in plastids.
