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 messageSix foxtail millet ASR genes were regulated by various stress-related signals. Overexpression of ASR1 increased drought and oxidative tolerance by controlling ROS homeostasis and regulating oxidation-related genes in tobacco plants. Abscisic acid stress ripening (ASR) proteins with ABA/WDS domains constituted a class of plant-specific transcription factors, playing important roles in plant development, growth and abiotic stress responses. However, only a few ASRs genes have been characterized in crop plants and none was reported so far in foxtail millet (Setaria italic), an important drought-tolerant crop and model bioenergy grain crop. In the present study, we identified six foxtail millet ASR genes. Gene structure, protein alignments and phylogenetic relationships were analyzed. Transcript expression patterns of ASR genes revealed that ASRs might play important roles in stress-related signaling and abiotic stress responses in diverse tissues in foxtail millet. Subcellular localization assays showed that SiASR1 localized in the nucleus. Overexpression of SiASR1 in tobacco remarkably increased tolerance to drought and oxidative stresses, as determined through developmental and physiological analyses of germination rate, root growth, survival rate, relative water content, ion leakage, chlorophyll content and antioxidant enzyme activities. Furthermore, expression of SiASR1 modulated the transcript levels of oxidation-related genes, including NtSOD, NtAPX, NtCAT, NtRbohA and NtRbohB, under drought and oxidative stress conditions. These results provide a foundation for evolutionary and functional characterization of the ASR gene family in foxtail millet.
