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

Many pathways of primary metabolism are substantially conserved within and across plant families. However, significant differences in organization and fluxes through a reaction network may occur, even between plants in closely related genera. Assessing and understanding these differences is key to appreciating metabolic diversity, and to attempts to engineer plant metabolism for higher crop yields and desired product profiles. To better understand lipid metabolism and seed oil synthesis in canola (Brassica napus), we have characterized four canola homologues of the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) ROD1 gene. AtROD1 encodes phosphatidylcholine:diacylglycerol cholinephosphotransferase (PDCT), the enzyme that catalyzes a major flux of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in oil synthesis. Assays in yeast indicated that only two of the canola genes, BnROD1.A3 and BnROD1.C3, encode active isozymes of PDCT, and these genes are strongly expressed during the period of seed oil synthesis. Loss of expression of BnROD1.A3 and BnROD1.C3 in a double mutant, or by RNA interference, reduced the PUFA content of the oil to 26.6% compared with 32.5% in the wild type. These results indicate that ROD1 isozymes in canola are responsible for less than 20% of the PUFAs that accumulate in the seed oil compared with 40% in Arabidopsis. Our results demonstrate the care needed when translating results from a model species to crop plants.
