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

Genome-wide analyses have identified a set of TIR-NBS-encoding genes in plants. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the expression of these genes is still unknown. In this study, we presented a TIR-NBS-encoding gene, PtDrl02, that displayed a low level of tissue-specific expression in a triploid white poplar [(Populus tomentosa x P. bolleana) x P. tomentosa], and analyzed the effects of the 5' untranslated region (UTR) on gene expression. The 5' UTR sequence repressed the reporter activity of beta-glucuronidase (GUS) gene under PtDrl02 promoter by 113.5-fold with a staining ratio of 2.97% in the transgenic tobacco plants. Quantitative RT-PCR assays revealed that the 5' UTR sequence decreased the transcript level of the GUS reporter gene by 13.3-fold, implying a regulatory role of 5' UTR in transcription and/or mRNA destabilization. The comparison of GUS activity with the transcript abundance indicated that the 5' UTR sequence decreased the translation efficiency of target gene by 88.3%. Additionally, the analysis of the transgenic P-985/UTRDelta/GUS plants showed that both the exon1 sequence and the leading intron within the 5' UTR region were responsible for the regulation of gene expression. Our results suggested a negative effect of the 5' UTR of PtDrl02 gene on gene expression.
