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

The non-yellowing gene (NYE1), initially identified from Arabidopsis, is a key regulatory gene responsible for chlorophyll degradation during senescence. Here, FaNYE1, an orthologue of AtNYE1, was further identified from a major type of cool-season turf grass, tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.), by RACE-PCR. It consists of 1,441 bp, with an open reading frame of 834 bp, encoding a predicted polypeptide of 278 amino acids. Sequence similarity as well as exon and intron characteristics clearly suggested that FaNYE1 encoded an AtNYE1-like chloroplast protein. FaNYE1 could be strongly induced by dark treatment and natural senescence. FaNYE1, driven by a 1.5 kb upstream fragment of AtNYE1, could rescue the stay-green phenotype of nye1-1. Constitutive overexpression of FaNYE1 in Arabidopsis resulted in the whole spectrum of leaf yellowing phenotypes, the severity of which correlates with its transcript level. These results collectively indicate that FaNYE1 might play an important regulatory role in chlorophyll degradation during senescence in tall fescue, and therefore is a valuable gene for improving the green period or lawn color of turf grasses by genetic engineering.
