Comparative transcriptome analysis to identify putative genes related to trichome development in Ocimum species.
Article in Molecular biology reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Genus Ocimum is known to have species possessing important therapeutic essential oil. The major phytoconstituents of essential oil in Ocimum species are phenylpropanoids and terpenoids. The essential oil is accumulated in the trichomes; the specialized structures predominantly found on leaves and other tissues. The development of trichome is integrated with development of plant and leaf and also tightly coordinated with the primary and secondary metabolic pathways producing essential oil constituents. In continuation to our studies on elucidating/understanding the mechanism of biosynthesis of essential oil pathways in Ocimum species, we have performed comparative transcriptome analysis to investigate the role of trichome-related gene expression in the regulation of biosynthetic pathways of essential oil. The essential oil biogenesis is tightly integrated with primary metabolic activities, the analysis for the expression pattern of genes related to primary metabolism and its relationship with secondary metabolism was evaluated in comparative manner. Physiological parameters in relation to primary metabolism such as photosynthetic pigment content, soluble sugar content, and invertase enzymes along with morphological parameters were analysed in O. basilicum and O. sanctum. Differential expression profiling uncovered about 8116 and 2810 differentially expressed transcripts in O. basilicum and O. sanctum, respectively. Enrichment of differentially expressed genes were analysed in relation to metabolic pathways, primary metabolism and secondary metabolism. Trichome related genes identified from the Ocimum species vis-à-vis their expression profiles suggested higher expression in O. basilicum. The findings in this study provide interesting insights into the role of trichome-related transcripts in relation to essential oil content in Ocimum species. The study is valuable as this is the first study on revealing the transcripts and their role in trichome development and essential oil biogenesis in two major species of Ocimum.
