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

backgroundVaccinium uliginosum (Ericaceae) is an important wild berry having high economic value. The white-fruited V. uliginosum variety found in the wild lacks anthocyanin and bears silvery white fruits. Hence, it is a good resource for investigating the mechanism of fruit color development. This study aimed to verify the differences in the expression levels of some structural genes and transcription factors affecting the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway by conducting high-throughput transcriptome sequencing and real-time PCR analysis by using the ripening fruits of V. uliginosum and the white-fruited variety.

resultsWe annotated 42,837 unigenes. Of the 325 differentially expressed genes, 41 were up-regulated and 284 were down-regulated. Further, 11 structural genes of the flavonoid pathway were up-regulated, whereas two were down-regulated. Of the seven genes encoding transcription factors, five were up-regulated and two were down-regulated. The structural genes VuCHS, VuF3'H, VuFHT, VuDFR, VuANS, VuANR, and VuUFGT and the transcription factors VubHLH92, VuMYB6, VuMYBPA1, VuMYB11, and VuMYB12 were significantly down-regulated. However, the expression of only VuMYB6 and VuMYBPA1 rapidly increased during the last two stages of V. uliginosum when the fruit was ripening, consistent with anthocyanin accumulation.

conclusionsVuMYB6 was annotated as MYB1 by the BLAST tool. Thus, the white fruit color in the V. uliginosum variant can be attributed to the down-regulation of transcription factors VuMYB1 and VuMYBPA1, which leads to the down-regulation of structural genes associated with the anthocyanin synthesis pathway.
