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

backgroundRice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most important crops that serves as staple food for ~ 50% of the human population worldwide. Some important agronomic traits that allow rice to cope with numerous abiotic and biotic stresses have been selected and fixed during domestication. Knowledge on how expression divergence of genes gradually contributes to phenotypic differentiation in response to biotic stress and their contribution to rice population speciation is still limited.

resultsHere, we explored gene expression divergence between a japonica rice cultivar Nipponbare and an indica rice cultivar 93-11 in response to invasion by the filamentous ascomycete fungus Magnaporthe oryzae (Pyricularia oryzae), a plant pathogen that causes significant loss to rice production worldwide. We investigated differentially expressed genes in the two cultivars and observed that evolutionarily conserved orthologous genes showed highly variable expression patterns under rice blast infection. Analysis of promoter region of these differentially expressed orthologous genes revealed the existence of cis-regulatory elements associated with the differentiated expression pattern of these genes in the two rice cultivars. Further comparison of these regions in global rice population indicated their fixation and close relationship with rice population divergence.

conclusionWe proposed that variation in the expression patterns of these orthologous genes mediated by cis-regulatory elements in the two rice cultivars, may constitute an alternative evolutionary mechanism that distinguishes these two genetically and ecologically divergent rice cultivars in response to M. oryzae infection.
