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

Fusarium wilt is a major biotic stress affecting the productivity of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum). Although mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades play critical roles in plant disease resistance, their intricate regulation under fungal stress remains unclear, especially with regards to microRNA-mediated regulation of MAPK gene expression. In this study, we report that the MAPK kinase gene GhMKK6 and ghr-miR5272a work together in cotton resistance to Fusarium wilt. Silencing GhMKK6 in cotton decreased resistance to F. oxysporum by repressing the expression of known disease-resistance genes. Furthermore, although GhMKK6 played a positive role in disease resistance, excessive GhMKK6 activation caused an excessive hypersensitive response. ghr-miR5272a, a major regulator, prevents this excessive response by regulating GhMKK6 expression. ghr-miR5272a targets the GhMKK6 3'-untranslated region in cotton. Overexpressing miR5272a decreased the expression of GhMKK6 and disease-resistance genes, and increased sensitivity to F. oxysporum, yielding a similar phenotype to GhMKK6-silenced cotton. Overall, these results demonstrate that the ghr-miR5272a-mediated regulation of GhMKK6 expression contributes to the immune response in cotton, and reveal a new feedback loop mechanism in plant disease response.
