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

backgroundAutotetraploid rice hybrids have great potential to increase the production, but hybrid sterility is a major hindrance in the utilization of hybrid vigor in polyploid rice, which is mainly caused by pollen abortion. Our previous study showed that double pollen fertility neutral genes, Sa-n and Sb-n, can overcome hybrid sterility in autotetraploid rice. Here, we used an autotetraploid rice line harboring double neutral genes to develop hybrids by crossing with auto- and neo-tetraploid rice, and evaluated heterosis and its underlying molecular mechanism.

resultsAll autotetraploid rice hybrids, which harbored double pollen fertility neutral genes, Sa-n and Sb-n, displayed high seed setting and significant positive heterosis for yield and yield-related traits. Cytological observations revealed normal chromosome behaviors and higher frequency of bivalents in the hybrid than parents during meiosis. Transcriptome analysis revealed significantly higher expressions of important saccharides metabolism and starch synthase related genes, such as OsBEIIb and OsSSIIIa, in the grains of hybrid than parents. Furthermore, many meiosis-related and specific genes, including DPW and CYP703A3, displayed up-regulation in the hybrid compared to a parent with low seed setting. Many non-additive genes were detected in the hybrid, and GO term of carbohydrate metabolic process was significantly enriched in all the transcriptome tissues except flag leaf (three days after flowering). Moreover, many differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in the yield-related quantitative trait loci (QTLs) regions as possible candidate genes.

conclusionOur results revealed that increase in the number of bivalents improved the seed setting of hybrid harboring double pollen fertility neutral genes. Many important genes, including meiosis-related and meiosis-specific genes and saccharides metabolism and starch synthase related genes, exhibited heterosis specific expression patterns in polyploid rice during different development stages. The functional analysis of important genes will provide valuable information for molecular mechanisms of heterosis in polyploid rice.
