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

More than 20 genes in the Arabidopsis genome encode proteins similar to phosphatases that act on the carboxyl-terminal domain (CTD) of RNA polymerase II. One of these CTD-phosphatase-like (CPL) proteins, CPL2, dephosphorylates CTD-Ser5-PO4 in an intact RNA polymerase II complex and contains a double-stranded (ds)-RNA-binding motif (DRM). Although the dsRNA-binding activity of CPL2 DRM has not been shown to date, T-DNA insertion mutants that express CPL2 variants lacking either a part of DRM (cpl2-1) or the entire DRM (cpl2-2) exhibited leaf expansion defects, early flowering, low fertility, and increased salt sensitivity. cpl2 mutant plants produced shorter hypocotyls than wild-type plants in the light, but were indistinguishable from wild type in the dark. CPL2 was expressed in shoot and root meristems and vasculatures, expanding rosette leaves, and floral organs suggesting a focal role for growth. Microarray and RT-PCR analyses revealed that basal levels of several auxin-responsive transcripts were reduced in cpl2. On the other hand, the levels of endogenous auxin and its conjugates were similar in wild type and cpl2. Overexpression of ARF5 but not all activator ARF transcription factors restored the auxin-responsive DR5-GUS reporter gene expression and the leaf expansion of cpl2 mutant plants but not early flowering phenotype. These results establish CPL2 as a multifunctional regulator that modulates plant growth, stress, and auxin responses.
