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

Previously, we had shown that stable expression of a hairpin RNA sharing homology with the coat protein (CP) of the Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) (hpRNA(CMV)) produced CMV resistant Nicotiana tabacum plants. However, only 17% of the hpRNA(CMV)-expressing plants generated substantial amounts of siRNAs that mediated CMV resistance (siRNAs(CMV)). Here, we demonstrate that the transcription of a hpRNA(CMV) per se is not sufficient to trigger cytoplasmic and nuclear RNAi. A multiple-transgene copy line showed a strong resistance phenotype. Segregation of individual copies revealed that in one locus, the transgene-produced hpRNA(CMV) transcript was processed into 21-nt and 24-nt siRNAs(CMV) and lines containing this locus were resistant. At a second locus, where the transgene was shown to be transcribed, no siRNAs(CMV) were produced and lines harbouring only this locus were susceptible. In addition, the second locus failed to trigger de novo RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) in cis, of its cognate sequence. However, after being induced in trans, methylation in the transcribed region of the transgene was maintained in both CG and CHG residues. Sequence-specific maintenance of methylation in transcribed regions, as well as diverse RNA degradation pathways in plants are discussed in view of our observations.
