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

Interspecific hybridization creates genetic variation useful for crop improvement. However, whether pollen from a different genus affects the genomic stability and/or transcriptome of the recipient species during intergeneric pollination has not been investigated. Here, we crossed japonica rice cv. Z12 with the maize accession B73 (pollen donor) and obtained a morphologically stable line, MU1, exhibiting moderate dwarfism, higher tiller number, and increased grain weight compared with Z12. To reveal the genetic basis of these morphological changes in MU1, we performed whole-genome resequencing of MU1 and Z12. Compared with Z12, MU1 showed 107,250 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 23,278 insertion/deletions (InDels). Additionally, 5'-upstream regulatory regions (5'UTRs) of 429 and 309 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in MU1 contained SNPs and InDels, respectively, suggesting that a subset of these DEGs account for the variation in 5'UTRs. Transcriptome analysis revealed 2190 DEGs in MU1 compared with Z12. Genes up-regulated in MU1 were mainly involved in photosynthesis, generation of precursor metabolites, and energy and cellular biosynthetic processes; whereas those down-regulated in MU1 were involved in plant hormone signal transduction pathway and response to stimuli and stress processes. Quantitative PCR (qPCR) further identified the expression levels of the up- or down-regulated gene in plant hormone signal transduction pathway. The expression level changes of plant hormone signal transduction pathway may be significant for plant growth and development. These findings suggest that mutations caused by intergeneric pollination could be the important reason for changes of MU1 in agronomic traits.
