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

MicroRNAs may increase cold stress tolerance by regulating stress-related signal transduction pathways and by modulating the expression of transcription factors. However, the molecular mechanism by which microRNAs enhance cold stress tolerance is not fully understood. Here, we report that overexpression of rice microRNA156 (OsmiR156) results in increased cell viability and growth rate under cold stress in Arabidopsis, pine, and rice. OsmiR156 increases cold stress tolerance by targeting OsSPL3. OsSPL3 positively regulates the expression of OsWRKY71, a negative regulator of the transcription factors OsMYB2 and OsMYB3R-2. OsMYB2 counteracts cold stress by activating the expression of the stress-response genes OsLEA3, OsRab16A, and OsDREB2A. OsMYB3R-2 counteracts cold stress by activating the expression of OsKNOLLE2, OsCTP1, OsCycB1.1, OsCycB2.1, and OsCDC20.1. In OsmiR156 transgenic rice cell lines, the transcript levels of OsLEA3, OsRab16A, OsDREB2A, OsKNOLLE2, OsCTP1, OsCycB1.1, OsCycB2.1, and OsCDC20.1 were increased by OsWRKY71 knockdown and inversely regulated by OsWRKY71 overexpression, indicating that OsmiR156 enhances cold stress tolerance by regulating the expression of transcription factor genes in plant cells. These results will increase our understanding of microRNA-related cold stress tolerance in different plant species, including monocotyledonous, dicotyledonous, and gymnosperm plant species, and will be valuable in plant molecular biotechnology.
