Systems identification and characterization of β-glucuronosyltransferase genes involved in arabinogalactan-protein biosynthesis in plant genomes.
Article in Scientific reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Utilizing plant biomass for bioethanol production requires an understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in plant cell wall assembly. Arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs) are glycoproteins that interact with other cell wall polymers to influence plant growth and developmental processes. Glucuronic acid, which is transferred to the AGP glycan by β-glucuronosyltransferases (GLCATs), is the only acidic sugar in AGPs with the ability to bind calcium. We carried out a comprehensive genome-wide analysis of a putative GLCAT gene family involved in AGP biosynthesis by examining its sequence diversity, genetic architecture, phylogenetic and motif characteristics, selection pressure and gene expression in plants. We report the identification of 161 putative GLCAT genes distributed across 14 plant genomes and a widely conserved GLCAT catalytic domain. We discovered a phylogenetic clade shared between bryophytes and higher land plants of monocot grass and dicot lineages and identified positively selected sites that do not result in functional divergence of GLCATs. RNA-seq and microarray data analyses of the putative GLCAT genes revealed gene expression signatures that likely influence the assembly of plant cell wall polymers which is critical to the overall growth and development of edible and bioenergy crops.
