Gene expression in a starch synthase IIa mutant of barley: changes in the level of gene transcription and grain composition.

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
The barley shrunken grain mutant M292 has a novel high-amylose starch phenotype caused by a mutation in the starch synthase IIa gene (SsIIa) located at the starch excess-6 (sex6) locus on chromosome 7H of barley. The loss of SSIIa enzyme activity leads to a decrease in amylopectin synthesis to less than 20% of the levels found in wild-type grains. Detailed composition analysis indicates that the contents of protein, non-starch polysaccharides, lipid, sucrose and hexoses, and fructo-oligosaccharides are increased in mature M292 grain compared to wild type. Using a microarray analysis, we characterize the differences between the transcription profiles of wild-type and mutant barley endosperms at mid-grain fill. The expression changes include genes involved in carbon storage, stress-related genes, and a number of transcripts with unassigned function. The changes in gene expression are discussed in terms of the altered grain composition of the mutant seed.
