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

backgroundAquaporins (AQPs) are a class of integral membrane proteins that facilitate the passive transport of water and other small solutes across biological membranes. Despite their importance, little information is available in cassava (Manihot esculenta), a perennial shrub of the Euphorbiaceae family that serves the sixth major staple crop in the world.

resultsThis study presents a genome-wide analysis of the AQP gene family in cassava. The family of 42 members in this species could be divided into five subfamilies based on phylogenetic analysis, i.e., 14 plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIPs), 13 tonoplast intrinsic proteins (TIPs), nine NOD26-like intrinsic proteins (NIPs), four X intrinsic proteins (XIPs), and two small basic intrinsic proteins (SIPs). Best-reciprocal-hit-based sequence comparison and synteny analysis revealed 34 orthologous groups (OGs) present in the Euphorbiaceae ancestor, and nearly one-to-one or two-to-one orthologous relationships were observed between cassava with rubber/physic nut, reflecting the occurrence of one so-called ρ recent whole-genome duplication (WGD) in the last common ancestor of cassava and rubber. In contrast to a predominant role of the ρ WGD on family expansion in rubber, cassava AQP duplicates were derived from the WGD as well as local duplication. Species-specific gene loss was also observed in cassava, which includes the entire NIP4 group and/or six OGs. Comparison of conserved motifs and gene expression profiles revealed divergence of paralogs in cassava as observed in rubber.

conclusionsOur findings will not only improve our knowledge on family evolution in Euphorbiaceae, but also provide valuable information for further functional analysis of AQP genes in cassava and rubber.
