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 messageDhEFL2, 3 and 4 regulate the flowering of Doritaenopsis . These genes could rescue elf4-1 phenotype in Arabidopsis while its overexpression delayed flowering. Phalaenopsis are popular floral plants, and studies on orchid flowering genes could help develop off-season cultivars. Early flowering 4 (ELF4) of A. thaliana has been shown to be involved in photoperiod perception and circadian regulation. We isolated two members of the ELF4 family from Doritaenopsis hybrid (Doritaenopsis 'Tinny Tender' (Doritaenopsis Happy Smile × Happy Valentine)), namely, DhEFL2 and DhEFL3 (DhEFL4 has been previously cloned). Multiple alignment analysis of the deduced amino acid sequences of the three DhEFL homologs showed that DhEFL4 and DhEFL2 are similar with 72% identical amino acids, whereas DhEFL3 is divergent with 72% similarity with DhEFL2 and 68% similarity with DhEFL4. DhEFL3 forms a separate phylogenetic subgroup and is far away from DhEFL2 and DhEFL4. The diurnal expression patterns of DhEFL2, 3, and 4 are similar in the long-day photoperiod conditions; however, in the short-day conditions, DhEFL3 is different from DhEFL2 and 4. For the DhEFL2, 3, and 4 genes, the strongest audience expression organs are the stem, petal and bud, respectively. The ectopic expression of DhEFL2, 3, or 4 in transgenic A. thaliana plants (Ws-2 ecotype) showed novel phenotypes by late flowering and more rosette leaves. The ectopic expression of DhEFL2, 3, or 4 could complement the elf4-1 flowering time and hypocotyl length defects in transgenic A. thaliana elf4-1 mutant plants. These results strongly suggest that DhEFL2, 3, and 4 may be involved in regulation of flower formation and floral induction in Doritaenopsis.
