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

backgroundPowdery mildew (PM) is one of the most severe fungal diseases of cucurbits, but the molecular mechanisms underlying PM resistance in cucumber remain elusive. In this study, we developed a PM resistant segment substitution line SSL508-28 that carried a segment on chromosome five representing the Pm5.1 locus from PM resistant donor Jin5-508 using marker-assisted backcrossing of an elite PM susceptible cucumber inbred line D8.

resultsWhole-genome resequencing of SSL508-28, Jin5-508 and D8 was performed to identify the exact boundaries of the breakpoints for this introgression because of the low density of available single sequence repeat markers. This led to the identification of a ~6.8 Mb substituted segment predicted to contain 856 genes. RNA-seq was used to study gene expression differences in PM treated (plants harvested 48 h after inoculation) and untreated (control) SSL508-28 and D8 lines. Exactly 1,248 and 1,325 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in SSL508-28 and D8, respectively. Of those, 88 DEGs were located in the ~6.8 Mb segment interval. Based on expression data and annotation, we identified 8 potential candidate genes that may participate in PM resistance afforded by Pm5.1, including two tandemly arrayed genes encoding receptor protein kinases, two transcription factors, two genes encoding remorin proteins, one gene encoding a P-type ATPase and one gene encoding a 70 kDa heat shock protein. The transcriptome data also revealed a complex regulatory network for Pm5.1-mediated PM resistance that may involve multiple signal regulators and transducers, cell wall modifications and the salicylic acid signaling pathway.

conclusionThese findings shed light on the cucumber PM defense mechanisms mediated by Pm5.1 and provided valuable information for the fine mapping of Pm5.1 and breeding of cucumber with enhanced resistance to PM.
