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

Vernalization is a response to the winter cold to acquire the competence to flower in next spring. VERNALIZATION INSENSITIVE 3 (VIN3) is a PHD-finger protein that binds to modified histones in vitro. VIN3 is induced by long-term cold and is necessary for Polycomb Repression Complex 2 (PRC2)-mediated tri-methylation of Histone H3 Lysine 27 (H3K27me3) at the FLC locus in Arabidopsis. An alteration in the PHD-finger domain of VIN3 changes the binding specificity of the PHD-finger domain of VIN3 in vitro and results in an accelerated vernalization response in vivo. The acceleration in vernalization response is achieved by increased enrichments of VIN3 and tri-methylation of Histone H3 Lysine 27 (H3K27me3) at the FLC locus without invoking the increased enrichment of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2. This result indicates that the binding specificity of the PHD-finger domain of VIN3 plays a role in mediating a proper vernalization response in Arabidopsis. Furthermore, this work shows a potential that the alteration of PHD-finger domains could be applied to alter various developmental processes in plants.
