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

backgroundThe rice blast is a typical fungal disease caused by Magnaporthe oryzae, and the mitochondrial ATP-dependent Lon protease (MAP1) has been proven to be involved in blast development. We previously screened a C3HC type Zinc-finger domain protein (ZFC3), which is interacted with MAP1. The purpose of this research was to study the biological function of ZFC3 protein in M. oryzae.

resultsWe first confirmed that the ZFC3-RFP fusion protein is localized within the mitochondria. The deleted mutant strains of ZFC3 (∆ZFC3) showed the enhanced expression level of mtATP6, particularly mtATP8, and almost unchanged nATP9. ΔZFC3 produces more conidia and more tolerance to multiple stressors. The knock-out strain shows more melanin accumulation suggests the susceptibility to aging. ΔZFC3 displays faster early-stage hypha infiltration involved in MAP1-mediated pathogenicity in host rice.

conclusionThese results support the view that ZFC3 is a key regulator involved in gene regulation, stress response, cell wall integrity, longevity, conidiation, infection hypha development and MAP1-mediated pathogenicity in M. oryzae.
