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

We have isolated two lineage-related Mutator (Mu3) transposon-induced Adh1 promoter mutants in maize: Adh1-3F1124 carries a duplicated TATA box and its revertant, Adh1-3F1124r17, bears a deleted TATA box. Both alterations lead to unique patterns of organ-specific ADH1 enzyme expression. Enzyme activity in Adh1-3F1124 sporophytic organs (scutellum and roots) is greatly reduced, while activity levels remain normal in the male gametophyte (pollen). Conversely, enzyme activity in Adh1-3F1124r17 roots and scutellum is partially restored, but is concomitantly reduced in pollen. Transcript analysis suggests (i) that the TATA box region of the Adh1 gene influences post-transcriptional processes in the male gametophyte but not in roots and (ii) that organ-specific transcription signals in the promoter are distinct from the previously identified anaerobic environment-specific cis-acting transcription signals. Different organs appear to provide surrogate TATA function in different ways, leading to organ-specific differences in the length of the Adh1 message 5' leader.
