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

Ammonium is the primarily nitrogen source for plant growth, but the molecular basis of ammonium acquisition in fruit species remains poorly understood. In this study, we report on the characterization of two new ammonium transporters (AMT) in the perennial tree Pyrus betulaefolia. In silico analyses and yeast complementation assays revealed that both PbAMT1;3 and PbAMT1;5 can be classified in the AMT1 sub-family. The specific expression of PbAMT1;3 in roots and of PbAMT1;5 in leaves indicates that they have diverse functions in ammonium uptake or transport in P. betulaefolia. Their expression was strongly influenced by ammonium availability. In addition, the transcript level of PbAMT1;5 was significantly affected by the diurnal cycle and senescence hormones. They conferred the ability to uptake nitrogen to the yeast strain 31019b; however, the (15)NH4 (+) uptake kinetics of PbAMT1;3 were different from those of PbAMT1;5. Indeed, PbAMT1;3 had a higher affinity for (15)NH4 (+), and pH changes were associated with this substrates' transport in yeast. The present study provides basic gene features and transcriptional information for the two new members of the AMT1 sub-family in P. betulaefolia and will aid in decoding the precise roles of AMTs in P. betulaefolia physiology.
