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

Key message In Verticillium wilt, gene silencing indicates that tomato Ve2-gene expression can have a dramatic effect on many defense/stress protein levels while Ve1-gene induction modulates these effects in a negative fashion. In tomato, Verticillium resistance is dependent on the Ve R-gene locus, which encodes two leucine-rich repeat receptor-like proteins, Ve1 and Ve2. During fungal wilt, Ve1 protein is sharply induced while Ve2 appears expressed constitutively throughout disease development; the disease resistance function usually is attributed to the Ve1 receptor alone. To study Ve2 function, levels of Ve2 mRNA were suppressed using RNAi in both susceptible and resistant Craigella tomato near-isolines and protein changes were evaluated at both the mRNA and protein levels. The results indicate that Ve2-gene expression can have dramatic effects on many defense/stress protein levels while the presence of intact Ve1 protein minimizes these effects in a negative fashion. The data suggest an antagonistic relationship between the Ve proteins in which Ve1 modulates the induction of defense/stress proteins by Ve2.
