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

Shoot branching is a major determinant of plant architecture and is regulated by both endogenous and environmental factors. BRANCHED1 (BRC1) is a central local regulator that integrates signals controlling shoot branching. So far, the regulation of BRC1 activity at the protein level is still largely unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that TIE1 (TCP interactor containing EAR motif protein 1), a repressor previously identified as an important factor in the control of leaf development, also regulates shoot branching by repressing BRC1 activity. TIE1 is predominantly expressed in young axillary buds. The gain-of-function mutant tie1-D produced more branches and the overexpression of TIE1 recapitulated the increased branching of tie1-D, while disruption of TIE1 resulted in lower bud activity and fewer branches. We also demonstrated that the TIE1 protein interacts with BRC1 in vitro and in vivo. Expression of BRC1 fused with the C-terminus of the TIE1 protein in wild type caused excessive branching similar to that observed in tie1-D and brc1 loss-of-function mutants. Transcriptome analyses revealed that TIE1 regulated about 30% of the BRC1-dependent genes, including the BRC1 direct targets HB21, HB40 and HB53. These results indicate that TIE1 acts as a positive regulator of shoot branching by directly repressing BRC1 activity. Thus, our results reveal that TIE1 is an important shoot branching regulator, and provide new insights in the post-transcriptional regulation of the TCP transcription factor BRC1.
