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

Over the past 6 years, we have generated about 50,000 individual transgenic rice plants by an Agrobacterium-mediated transformation approach with the pER38 activation tagging vector. The vector contains tandemly arranged double 35S enhancers next to the right border of T-DNA. Expression analysis by reverse transcription-PCR indicates that the activation efficiency is high if the genes are located within 7 kb of the inserted double 35S enhancers. Comparative field phenotyping of part of the activation tagging and enhancer trapping populations in two generations (6,000 and 6,400 lines, respectively, in the T(0) generation, and 36,000 and 32,000 lines, respectively, in the T(1) generation) identified about four hundred dominant mutants. Characterization of a dominant mutant with a large leaf angle (M107) suggests that this mutant phenotype is caused by enhanced expression of CYP724B1/D11. The activation tagging pool described in this paper is a valuable alternative tool for functional analysis of the rice genome.
