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

Aquaporins (AQPs) are of vital importance in the cellular transport system of all living organisms. In this study, genome-wide identification, distribution, and characterization of AQPs were determined in Arabidopsis lyrata, Capsella grandiflora, C. rubella, Eutrema salsugineum, Brassica rapa, B. oleracea, and B. napus (canola). Classification and phylogeny of AQPs revealed the loss of XIPs and NIP-IIIs in all species. Characterization of distinctive AQP features showed a high level of conservation in spacing between NPA-domains, and selectivity filters. Interestingly, TIP3s were found to be highly expressed in developing seeds, suggesting their role in seed desiccation. Analysis of available RNA-seq data obtained under biotic and abiotic stresses led to the identification of AQPs involved in stress tolerance mechanisms in canola. In addition, analysis of the effect of ploidy level, and resulting gene dose effect performed with the different combinations of Brassica A and C genomes revealed that more than 70% of AQPs expression were dose-independent, thereby supporting their role in stress alleviation. This first in-depth characterization of Brassicaceae AQPs highlights transport mechanisms and related physiological processes that could be exploited in breeding programs of stress-tolerant cultivars.
