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 aim of this study was the improvement of embryo production in wheat anther culture. Three butanol alcohols, n-butanol, sec-butanol and tert-butanol, were evaluated for their effect on microspore embryogenesis in two spring cultivars of wheat, Pavon and Caramba. Application of n-butanol, at 0.1 and 0.2% (v/v) in the induction media for 5 h, highly improved embryo production in both cultivars. Sec- and tert-butanol performed similarly to control plates. Regeneration ability was unaffected by any butyl-alcohol treatment. As a consequence of the higher embryo production after n-butanol treatment, the number of green regenerated plants increased up to five times in cultivar Pavon and up to three times in cultivar Caramba. The percentage of green plants was improved or unaffected by the treatment. Doubled haploid plant production was between 2 and 4 times higher after n-butanol treatment than in control plates. Therefore, n-butanol was successfully applied in the production of wheat doubled haploids. This primary alcohol is known as an activator of phospholipase D and has been previously reported to disrupt cortical microtubules and detach them from the plasma membrane in plants. Its effects on androgenetic induction could confirm the importance of microtubule regulation in plant cell fate, specifically in microspore development. A possible implication of phospholipase D is discussed.
