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

Light is the most important environmental cue signaling the transition from skotomorphogenesis to photomorphogenesis, thus affecting plant development and metabolic activity. How the light response mechanisms of maize seedlings respond to fluctuations in the light environment has not been well characterized to date. In this study, we built a gene coexpression network from a dynamic transcriptomic map of maize seedlings exposed to different light environments. Coexpression analysis identified ten modules and multiple genes that closely correlate with photosynthesis and characterized hub genes associated with regulatory networks, duplication events, domestication and improvement. In addition, we identified that 38% of hub genes underwent duplication events, 74% of which are related to photosynthesis. Moreover, we captured the dynamic expression atlas of gene sets involved in the chloroplast photosynthetic apparatus and photosynthetic carbon assimilation in different light environments, which should help to elucidate the key mechanisms and regulatory networks that underlie photosynthesis in maize. Insights from this study provide a valuable resource to better understand the genetic mechanisms of the response to fluctuations in the light environment in maize.
