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

key messageWe found that the elicitor PevD1 triggered innate immunity in cotton, which plays an important role in future cotton wilt disease control. ABSTRACT: Elicitors can induce defense responses in plants and improve pathogen resistance. PevD1 is a secreted protein from Verticillium dahliae and activates the hypersensitive response and systemic acquired resistance to tobacco mosaic virus in tobacco plants. To investigate the PevD1-induced disease resistance mechanisms in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum), we report that Escherichia coli expressing PevD1 enhanced cotton resistance and the defense response to the fungal pathogen V. dahliae. The results showed that recombinant PevD1 improved cotton resistance when infiltrated at a concentration as low as 4 μg ml(-1), and the highest disease reduction was 38.16 % on the 15th day post V. dahliae inoculation. This protein was able to systemically induce hydrogen peroxide production, nitric oxide generation, lignin deposition, vessel reinforcement and defense enzymes, including phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, peroxidase, and polyphenol oxidase. PevD1 also enhanced the expression of three pathogenesis-related genes, namely, β-1,3-glucanase, chitinase, and cadinene synthase, and three key genes, PAL, C4H1, and 4CL, from the cotton defense phenylpropanoid metabolism pathway. Our results demonstrated that PevD1 acted as an effector in cotton and V. dahliae interactions and triggered innate immunity in cotton, resulting in the upregulation of defense-related genes, metabolic substance deposition and cell wall modifications. PevD1 is a candidate plant defense activator for cotton wilt disease control.
