Identification of a UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase from cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) involved in cellulose biosynthesis in Arabidopsis thaliana.

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.
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
UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase is an important regulatory enzyme for the development of plants and a critical enzyme in synthesis of glycogen. Here, we reported the cloning of a full-length UGP cDNA from cotton, named GhUGP. Real-time PCR analysis indicated the GhUGP expression in root, stem, leaf and flower of cotton, with a higher level in flower and root. The transcription level of GhUGP depended on sucrose and light in short time and increased under low temperature, but decreased in O(2) deficiency. Interestingly, the expression of GhUGP was significantly up-regulated after ethylene induction in cotton ovules. The over-expression of the GhUGP in Arabidopsis showed discrepant phenotype: increase in height and growth rate when compared with control lines. What is more, the transgenic Arabidopsis had increased contents of soluble sugars, starch and cellulose, but not in lignin content. Collectively, these results indicate that cotton UGPase participates in sucrose/polysaccharides metabolism and cell wall biosynthesis and provide theoretical deduction supporting GhUGP as a good candidate gene for improving the development of cotton fibers cell.
