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

Histochemical GUS-staining and fluorometric analyses revealed strong tissue specific activities of the cell wall invertase promoters Nin88 from Nicotiana tabacum and AtcwINV2 from Arabidopsis thaliana that are restricted tightly to anthers and pollen, respectively. Both in A. thaliana and N. tabacum repression of invertase activity by anther specific RNA-interference turned out to be an efficient method to circumvent carbohydrate supply of the symplastically isolated pollen with subsequent strong decrease of pollen germination ability and seed setting. In the case of tobacco, comparable results were also obtained by expressing a proteinaceous invertase inhibitor, whereas this approach was less efficient in Arabidopis. The present study revealed that anther specific interference with invertase-activity in order to generate male sterile plants can be applied to members of the two different plant families Solanaceae (N. tabacum) and Brassicaceae (A. thalaina) and the strategy seems to be a general tool for practical application in hybrid breeding or as biological safety precautions. To elucidate the compatibility of the isolated promoters beyond plant families, we transferred the regulatory sequences into the respectively heterologous systems, i.e. the Nin88 promoter into Arabidopsis and the AtcwINV2 promoter into tobacco. The specificities of both promoters are maintained in the heterologous backgrounds, but their activities are strongly reduced as GUS-stainings of flowers and pollen revealed and fluorometrical quantification confirmed.
