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 regulation of plant hydraulic conductance and gas conductance involves a number of different morphological, physiological and molecular mechanisms working in harmony. At the molecular level, aquaporins play a key role in the transport of water, as well as CO₂, through cell membranes. Yet, their tissue-related function, which controls whole-plant gas exchange and water relations, is less understood. In this study, we examined the tissue-specific effects of the stress-induced tobacco Aquaporin1 (NtAQP1), which functions as both a water and CO₂ channel, on whole-plant behavior. In tobacco and tomato plants, constitutive overexpression of NtAQP1 increased net photosynthesis (A(N)), mesophyll CO₂ conductance (g(m)) and stomatal conductance (g(s)) and, under stress, increased root hydraulic conductivity (L(pr)) as well. Our results revealed that NtAQP1 that is specifically expressed in the mesophyll tissue plays an important role in increasing both A(N) and g(m). Moreover, targeting NtAQP1 expression to the cells of the vascular envelope significantly improved the plants' stress response. Surprisingly, NtAQP1 expression in the guard cells did not have a significant effect under any of the tested conditions. The tissue-specific involvement of NtAQP1 in hydraulic and gas conductance via the interaction between the vasculature and the stomata is discussed.
