Proteomics and functional analyses of Arabidopsis nitrilases involved in the defense response to microbial pathogens.
Article in Planta, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
MAIN
conclusionProteomics and functional analyses of the Arabidopsis - Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato interactions reveal that Arabidopsis nitrilases are required for plant defense and R gene-mediated resistant responses to microbial pathogens. A high-throughput in planta proteome screen has identified Arabidopsis nitrilase 2 (AtNIT2), which was de novo-induced by Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst) infection. The AtNIT2, AtNIT3, and AtNIT4 genes, but not AtNIT1, were distinctly induced in Arabidopsis leaves by Pst infection. Notably, avirulent Pst DC3000 (avrRpt2) infection led to significant induction of AtNIT2 and AtNIT4 in leaves. Pst DC3000 and Pst DC3000 (avrRpt2) significantly grew well in leaves of nitrilase transgenic (nit2i-2) and mutant (nit1-1 and nit3-1) lines compared to the wild-type leaves. In contrast, NIT2 overexpression in nit2 mutants led to significantly high growth of the two Pst strains in leaves. The nitrilase transgenic and mutant lines exhibited enhanced susceptibility to Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis infection. The nit2 mutation enhanced Pst DC3000 (avrRpt2) growth in salicylic acid (SA)-deficient NahG transgenic and sid2 and npr1 mutant lines. Infection with Pst DC3000 or Pst DC3000 (avrRpt2) induced lower levels of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) in nit2i and nit2i NahG plants than in wild-type plants, but did not alter the IAA level in NahG transgenic plants. This suggests that Arabidopsis nitrilase 2 is involved in IAA signaling of defense and R gene-mediated resistance responses to Pst infection. Quantification of SA in these transgenic and mutant plants demonstrates that Arabidopsis nitrilase 2 is not required for SA-mediated defense response to the virulent Pst DC3000 but regulates SA-mediated resistance to the avirulent Pst DC3000 (avrRpt2). These results collectively suggest that Arabidopsis nitrilase genes are involved in plant defense and R gene-mediated resistant responses to microbial pathogens.
