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 messageA novel Zoysia japonica salt-induced glycine-rich RNA-binding protein gene was cloned in this study and its overexpression caused salt sensitivity in transgenic Arabidopsis. Glycine-rich RNA-binding proteins (GRPs) play crucial roles in diverse plant developmental processes. However, the mechanisms and functions of GRPs in salinity stress responses remain largely unknown. In this study, rapid amplification of cDNA end (RACE) PCR methods was adopted to isolate ZjGRP from Zosyia japonica, a salt-tolerant grass species. ZjGRP cDNA was 456 bp in length, corresponding to 151 amino acids. ZjGRP was localized in the nucleus and cytoplasm, and was found particularly abundantly in stomatal guard cells. Quantitative real-time PCR showed that ZjGRP was expressed in the roots, stems, and leaves of Zoysia japonica, with the greatest expression seen in the fast-growing leaves. Furthermore, expression of ZjGRP was strongly induced by treatment with NaCl, ABA, MeJA, and SA. Overexpression of ZjGRP in Arabidopsis reduced the rate of germination and retarded seedling growth. ZjGRP-overexpressing Arabidopsis thaliana exhibited weakened salinity tolerance, likely as a result of effects on ion transportation, osmosis, and antioxidation. This study indicates that ZjGRP plays an essential role in inducing salt sensitivity in transgenic plants.
