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

The process of RNA editing in chloroplasts and higher plant mitochondria displays some similarities, raising the question of common or similar components in editing apparatus of these two organelles. To investigate the ability of plant mitochondria to edit plastid transcripts, we employed a previously established mitochondrial maize and cauliflower in organello system. Two plastid genes, Zea mays ndhB and ycf3 containing group II introns and several editing sites, were introduced into mitochondria. The genes were transcribed in organello. However, these transcripts of the plastid genes are neither spliced nor edited in plant mitochondria. A comparison of maize ndhB editing sites and maize mitochondrial editing sites reveals considerable sequence similarities between three ndhB editing sites and several mitochondrial sites. Nevertheless, these ndhB editing sites were not recognized in the mitochondria. Thus, we present for the first time direct evidence that the factors present in the plant mitochondria are not sufficient to allow editing and splicing of plastid transcripts.
