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

The glyoxalase pathway is composed of glyoxalase I (GLYI) and glyoxalase II (GLYII) and is responsible for the detoxification of a cytotoxic metabolite methylglyoxal (MG) into the nontoxic S-D-lactoylglutathione. The two glyoxalase enzymes play a crucial role in stress tolerance in various plant species. Recently, the GLY gene families have well been analyzed in Arabidopsis, rice and soybean, however, little is known about them in Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa). Here, 16 BrGLYI and 15 BrGLYII genes were identified in the B. rapa genome, and the BrGLYI and BrGLYII proteins were both clustered into five subfamilies. The classifications, chromosomal distributions, gene duplications, exon-intron structures, localizations, conserved motifs and promoter cis-elements were also predicted and analyzed. In addition, the expression pattern of these genes in different tissues and their response to biotic and abiotic stresses were analyzed using publicly available data and a quantitative real-time PCR analysis (RT-qPCR). The results indicated that the expression profiles of BrGLY genes varied among different tissues. Notably, a number of BrGLY genes showed responses to biotic and abiotic stress treatments, including Plasmodiophora brassicae infection and various heavy metal stresses. Taken together, this study identifies BrGLYI and BrGLYII gene families in B. rapa and offers insight into their roles in plant development and stress resistance, especially in heavy metal stress tolerance and pathogen resistance.
