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

backgroundCB-1 and K326 are closely related tobacco cultivars; however, their cold tolerance capacities are different. K326 is much more cold tolerant than CB-1.

resultsWe studied the transcriptomes and metabolomes of CB-1 and K326 leaf samples treated with cold stress. Totally, we have identified 14,590 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in CB-1 and 14,605 DEGs in K326; there was also 200 differentially expressed metabolites in CB-1 and 194 in K326. Moreover, there were many overlapping genes (around 50%) that were cold-responsive in both plant cultivars, although there were also many differences in the cold responsive genes between the two cultivars. Importantly, for most of the overlapping cold responsive genes, the extent of the changes in expression were typically much more pronounced in K326 than in CB-1, which may help explain the superior cold tolerance of K326. Similar results were found in the metabolome analysis, particularly with the analysis of primary metabolites, including amino acids, organic acids, and sugars. The large number of specific responsive genes and metabolites highlight the complex regulatory mechanisms associated with cold stress in tobacco. In addition, our work implies that the energy metabolism and hormones may function distinctly between CB-1 and K326.

conclusionsDifferences in gene expression and metabolite levels following cold stress treatment seem likely to have contributed to the observed difference in the cold tolerance phenotype of these two tobacco cultivars.
