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

backgroundERECTA family (ERf) genes are found in many dicots and monocots, and play important roles in plant developmental processes and stress responses. However, there is little known on ERf genes in grape (Vitis vinifera L.).

objectivesThe primary objective of this study was to identify the ERf genes in grape, and to analyze their expression profiles in different organs, during development, and in response to hormone treatments and abiotic/biotic stresses.

methodsERf protein sequences of dicots were aligned in the grape genome (V. vinifera cv. Pinot Noir, PN40024, 12X) with Blast server. The locus tags obtained were inputted in NCBI to retrieve corresponding nucleotide and protein accession numbers. The subcellular localization experiment was performed by the transient expression of VvERECTA-GFP and VvERL2-GFP in mesophyll protoplasts of Arabidopsis. The expression levels of ERf genes in grape leaves were detected by qRT-PCR after hormone treatments and abiotic/biotic stresses.

resultsWe first identified the ERf genes in the grape genome, including VvERECTA and VvERL2. Their cDNA full-length sequences were obtained with the accession numbers MG601756 and MG601757. The result of subcellular localization indicated that the fusion proteins of VvERECTA and VvERL2 were localized in the plasma membrane. There were four conserved domains identified in VvERECTA and VvERL2, including a LRRNT-2, a LRR, a transmembrane and a protein kinase domain. The grape ERf genes expressed highly in young aboveground organs. As grape leaves or berries becoming mature, VvERECTA expressed in a declining trend. The transcript abundance of VvERL2 decreased during leaves development, but showed no significant differences during berries development. The hormone treatments of ABA, SA, MeJA and BR could induce the expression of VvERECTA and VvERL2. The treatments of heat, drought, downy and powdery mildew significantly increased the expression levels of the grape ERf genes.

conclusionThe grape ERECTA gene family might play crucial roles in response to abiotic and biotic stresses. We provide the first description of the grape ERf genes and the most comprehensive analysis of their expressions in different biological processes.
