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

Calcium plays an essential role in pollen tube tip growth. However, little is known concerning the molecular basis of the signaling pathways involved. Here, we identified Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) CALCINEURIN B-LIKE PROTEIN-INTERACTING PROTEIN KINASE19 (CIPK19) as an important element to pollen tube growth through a functional survey for CIPK family members. The CIPK19 gene was specifically expressed in pollen grains and pollen tubes, and its overexpression induced severe loss of polarity in pollen tube growth. In the CIPK19 loss-of-function mutant, tube growth and polarity were significantly impaired, as demonstrated by both in vitro and in vivo pollen tube growth assays. Genetic analysis indicated that disruption of CIPK19 resulted in a male-specific transmission defect. Furthermore, loss of polarity induced by CIPK19 overexpression was associated with elevated cytosolic Ca2+ throughout the bulging tip, whereas LaCl3, a Ca2+ influx blocker, rescued CIPK19 overexpression-induced growth inhibition. Our results suggest that CIPK19 may be involved in maintaining Ca2+ homeostasis through its potential function in the modulation of Ca2+ influx.
