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

Morchella importuna is a worldwide distributed edible mushroom with high ecological and economic values, but the molecular and genetic research about this mushroom has been hindered due to lack of an efficient transformation method. Here, we report for the first time the successful transformation of M. importuna by using a hypervirulent Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain bearing the constructed binary plasmid p1391-U-GUS. The selectable markers used were the genes for hygromycin resistance under the control of the polyubquitin promoter from M. importuna. The reporter genes were those for enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) and the β-Glucuronidase (GUS) under the control of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase promoter and polyubquitin promoter respectively. The presence of the reporter gene EGFP in the transformants was confirmed by the fluorescence and confocal microscope and molecular analysis and that of the reporter gene GUS was verified by enzyme activity and molecular analysis. The analysis results of both reporter genes indicated that Agrobacterium-mediated transformation was successfully performed in M. importuna.
