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

Nuclear Factor Y (NF-Y) gene family regulates numbers of flowering processes. Two independent transgenic Arabidopsis lines overexpressing (OX) GmNFY-B1 and GmNFYB1-GR (GmNFYB1 fused with the glucocorticoid receptor) were used to investigate the function of NFY-B1 in flowering. Furthermore, GmNFYB1-GR lines were chemically treated with dexamethasone (Dex, synthetic steroid hormone), cycloheximide (Cyc, an inhibitor of protein biosynthesis), and ethanol to examine their effects on different flowering related marker genes. Our results indicated that the transgenic lines produced longer hypocotyl lengths and had fewer numbers of rosette leaves compared to the wild-type and nf-yb1 mutant plants under both long and short-day (LD and SD) conditions. The qRT-PCR assays revealed that transcript levels of all flowering time regulating genes, i.e. SOC, FLC, FT, TSF, LFY, GI2, AGL, and FCA showed higher transcript abundance in lines OX GmNFYB1-GR. However, FT and GI genes showed higher transcript levels under Dex and Dex/Cyc treatments compared to Cyc and ethanol. Additionally, 24 differentially expressed genes were identified and verified through RNA-seq and RT-qPCR in GmNF-YB1-GR lines under Cyc and Dex/Cyc treatments from which 14 genes were up-regulated and 10 were down-regulated. These genes are involved in regulatory functions of circadian rhythm, regulation of flower development in photoperiodic, and GA pathways. The overexpression of GmNF-YB1 and GmNF-YB1-GR promote flowering through the higher expression of flowering-related genes. Further GmNF-YB1 and its attachment with the GR receptor can regulate its target genes under Dex/Cyc treatment and might act as flowering inducer under LD and SD conditions.
