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

Drought is the main factor that significantly affects plant growth and has devastating effects on crop production of jute. NAC (NAM, ATAF, and CUC2) transcription factors (TFs) are a large gene family in plants that have been shown to play many important roles in regulating developmental processes and abiotic stress resistance. In this study, a NAC transcription factor, CcNAC1, was cloned and characterized its function in jute. RT-qPCR analysis showed that CcNAC1 expression peaks after 8 h of drought stress. CcNAC1 overexpression and knockdown plants were created by Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation. PCR and southern hybridization results indicate that the CcNAC1 gene was integrated into the genome of jute. Overexpression of the CcNAC1 gene sped up the plant growth, promoted early flowering, and increased drought tolerance compared to the control plants. 3-Ketoacyl-CoA synthase (KCS) gene expression level increased significantly in the CcNAC1-overexpression plants and decreased in knockdown plants, which showed that CcNAC1 transcription factor regulated KCS gene expression. Yeast-2-Hybrid (Y2H) assays validated the physical interaction between CcNAC1 and KCS. The results provide relatively comprehensive information on the molecular mechanisms of CcNAC1 gene underlying the regulation of plant growth and drought stress resistance, and indicate that CcNAC1 acts as a positive regulator in drought tolerance in jute (Corchorus capsularis L.).
