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

backgroundRust caused by Melampsora larici-populina is one of the most damaging diseases of poplars. Rust is considered to be a model pathogen for genetic studies because both pathogen and host genomes are available. The poplar 'Robusta', whose general rust resistance is defeated by virulent rust E4, provides suitable host material for studies of the gene regulation involved in rust resistance/susceptibility. In this study, we investigated the microRNA-mediated susceptible poplar gene expression regulation associated with the infection of virulent rust. We were particularly interested in delineating the host-pathogen interactions with a specific focus on microRNAs (miRNAs).

resultsTo study the susceptibility of poplar to M. larici-populina, small RNA (sRNA) libraries, a degradome cDNA library and digital gene expression libraries were constructed for rust-inoculated and rust-free susceptible poplar 'Robusta' leaves through high-throughput sequencing. Altogether, 12,722 regulating interactions were identified. The results delineated the framework of post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in the susceptible poplar, which was infected by the virulent rust. The results indicated that pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and PAMP-triggered immunity were induced by the infection of virulent rust E4 and that miRNAs still functioned at this stage. After this stage, miRNA-regulated R genes, such as TIR-NBS-LRR and CC-NBS-LRR, were not fully functional. Additionally, the rust-responsive miRNAs did not regulate the signaling component genes related to the salicylic acid pathway or the hypersensitive response.

conclusionsWe found that the defense-related post-transcriptional regulation of the susceptible poplar 'Robusta' functions normally only at the stage of PAMPs and PAMP-triggered immunity (PTI). More importantly, the miRNA-mediated post-transcriptional regulation of defense signal pathway genes were inactivated by the infection of virulent rust at the stage of effector-triggered susceptibility and during the following stages of salicylic acid and hypersensitive responses. This inactivation was the major characteristic of 'Robusta' susceptibility.
