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

BLT101-family plasma membrane proteins are found in a wide range of organisms from bacteria to nematodes and are involved in the regulation of cellular cation concentration under stress conditions. A comparison of the promoter regions of barley blt101 and its wheat ortholog, wpi6, revealed highly conserved nucleotide sequences between both genes and a unique insertion of a Xumet element in the blt101 promoter. The Xumet insertion occurred between a putative abscisic acid-responsive element (ABRE) and the dehydration-responsive element/c-repeat (DRE/CRT) within the blt101 promoter. However, blt101 and wpi6 were induced similarly in response to ABA, drought and low temperature, suggesting that the insertion does not affect promoter functions. The Xumet insertion in the blt101/wpi6 promoter region was detected in five barley cultivars, but absent in two wheat cultivars tested, suggesting that the insertion is barley-specific. Genomic Southern blot analysis revealed a large number of Xumet sequences interspersed in the barley genome, whereas only one or very few copies are present in the wheat genome. The data suggested that an expansion in copy number of Xumet elements occurred in the barley genome through evolution.
