Phenotypic analyses of rice lse2 and lse3 mutants that exhibit hyperaccumulation of starch in the leaf blades.

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
backgroundTo identify genes that potentially regulate the accumulation, mobilization, and transport of photoassimilates in rice (Oryza sativa L.) leaves, we recently screened a mutant collection of rice by iodine staining to visualize leaf starch contents. From this screening, we isolated a rice mutant that exhibits hyperaccumulation of starch in leaves and designated it as the Leaf Starch Excess 1 (LSE1) mutant. Here, we report two other rice LSE mutants, LSE2 and LSE3.
resultsUnlike lse1 plants, lse2 and lse3 plants displayed retarded growth; lse2 showed an extremely dwarf phenotype and rarely survived in paddy fields; lse3 showed inhibited growth with pale green leaf blades, low tiller numbers, reduced height, and low grain yield. In lse2 and lse3 plants, the mature source leaves contained larger amounts of starch and sucrose than those in wild-type and lse1 plants. Furthermore, microscopic observations of leaf transverse sections indicated that hyperaccumulation of starch in chloroplasts of mesophyll and bundle sheath cells occurred in lse2 and lse3 plants, while that in vascular cells was noticeable only in lse3 leaves.
conclusionsThe distinct phenotypes of these three LSE mutants suggest that the LSE2 and LSE3 mutations occur because of disruption of novel genes that might be involved in the path of sucrose transport from mesophyll cells to phloem sieve elements in rice leaves, the mechanism for which has not yet been elucidated.
