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

Three coding region cDNAs of duplicated PISTILLATA-like (PI-like) MADS-box genes, BnPI-1, BnPI-2 and BnPI-3, were isolated from B. napus by RT-PCR. The sequence analysis showed that the three PI cDNAs possessed 627, 627 and 625 nucleotides, respectively, and their nucleotide sequences had 96.49-98.72% similarity. Due to a deletion of two nucleotides, the protein sequence in the downstream of the frameshift site was altered in BnPI-3. Therefore, there were only 171 amino acids coded by BnPI-3, while there were 208 ones coded by BnPI-1 or BnPI-2. The deduced amino acid identity between BnPI-1 and BnPI-2 was 97.6% and the amino acid sequence of BnPI-1 and BnPI-2 shared 72.6% identity with BnPI-3. The deduced amino acid sequences of the coded proteins indicated high homology with the members of the PI family of MADS-box proteins. RT-PCR analysis showed that BnPI transcription was only detectable in petals and stamens. The yeast two-hybrid assays results showed that the three BnPI proteins exhibited different dimerization affinities with three BnAP3. BnPI-1 and BnPI-2 could form strong heterodimers with BnAP3. The dimerization affinity of BnPI-1 with BnAP3-4 is the strongest in all the combinations, while the affinity of BnPI-3 with BnAP3-4 is the weakest. The dimerization affinity to BnAP3-4 of BnPI-1 is 3.5 times of that of BnPI-3. The distinguished weak interaction to AP3 of BnPI-3 is probably due to the loss of the PI motif. The divergences of sequence and affinity of protein interaction might reflect some functional divergence of the three PI genes in B. napus.
