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

backgroundWRKY transcription factors (TFs) have been suggested to play crucial roles in the response to biotic and abiotic stresses. This study is the first to report the alkaline salt regulation of the WRKY gene.

resultsIn this study, we cloned a WRKY gene (SlWRKY28) from the Salix linearistipularis and then transferred to the Populus davidiana × P. bolleana for expression. Sequence analysis on the transcriptome of Salix linearistipular showed the significant up-regulation of WRKY gene expression in response to salt-alkali stress in seedlings. Our data showed that SlWRKY28 localized to the nucleus. Furthermore, the expression of the SlWRKY28 from female plants increased with saline-alkali stress according to the northern blot analysis results. The results of 3,3'-Diaminobenzidine (DAB) staining showed that hydrogen peroxide (H

conclusionsWe found out the SlWRKY28 induced regulation of the enzyme gene in the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging pathway is a potential mechanism for transgenic lines to improve their resistance to alkaline salt. This study shows theoretical and practical significance in determining SlWRKY28 transcription factors involved in the regulation of alkaline salt tolerance.
