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

Protein phosphatase type 1 (PP1) plays an important role in cellular metabolism and development in yeast. In PP1 enzyme complex, Glc8 protein is a global regulatory subunit and regulates many physiological processes. However, its biological roles are unexplored in filamentous fungi. In this study, we characterized a yeast ortholog of Glc8 in Beauveria bassiana, a filamentous entomopathogenic fungus. Gene disruption of BbGlc8 had no significant effect on vegetative growth, but resulted in a significant reduction in conidiation (51%) and blastospore yield (55%) in the mutant. The ΔBbGlc8 mutant displayed an enhanced sensitivity to oxidative stress and a weakened virulence as indicated by cuticle infection and intrahemocoel injection assays. Transcriptomic analysis indicated that the genes regulated by BbGlc8 during conidiation were primarily associated with metabolism, cell rescue and cell wall formation. Notably, as a down-regulated gene in ΔBbGlc8 mutant, BbOsmC2 (a member of OsmC protein family) contributes to fungal resistance to salt stress, spore differentiation and virulence. Thus, BbOsmC2 functions as a down-stream target of BbGlc8 during spore differentiation, but not in stress response. Our findings indicate that BbGlc8 contributes to the biocontrol potential of B. bassiana by mediating comprehensive genetic pathways.
