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

Dwarf cultivars or dwarfing rootstocks enable high-density planting and are therefore highly desirable in modern pear production. Previously, we found that the dwarf growth habit of pear is controlled by a single dominant gene PcDw. In this study, PcPIN-L (PCP021016) was cloned from dwarf-type and standard-type pears. PcPIN-L expression was significantly lower in the dwarf-type pears than in standard-type pears, which was caused by the CT repeat deletion in the promoter of dwarf-type pears. PcPIN-L overexpression in tobacco plants enhanced the growth of the stems and the roots. Notably, the indole acetic acid (IAA) content decreased in the shoot tips and increased in the stems of transgenic lines compared with wild type, which is consistent with the greater IAA content in the shoot tips and lower IAA content in the stems of dwarf-type pears than in standard-type pears. The CT repeat deletion in the promoter that causes a decrease in promoter activity is associated with lower PcPIN-L expression in the dwarf-type pears, which might limit the polar auxin transport and in turn result in the dwarf phenotype. Taken together, the results provide a novel dwarfing molecular mechanism in perennial woody plants.
