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

Plants use different regulatory modules in response to changes in their surroundings. With the transcriptomic approaches governing all research areas, an integrative, fast, and sensitive approach toward validating genes of interest becomes a critical step prior to functional studies in planta. This chapter describes a detailed method for a quantitative analysis of transcriptional readouts of defense response genes using tobacco leaves as a transient system. The method uses Luciferase reporter assays to monitor activities of defense pathway promoters. Under normal conditions, the JASMONATE ZIM-DOMAIN (JAZ) proteins repress defense genes by preventing their expression. Here, we will provide a detailed protocol on the use of a dual-luciferase system to analyze activities of various defense response promoters simultaneously. We will use two well-characterized modules from the Jasmonic acid (JA) defense pathway; the JAZ3 repressor protein and the promoters of three of JA responsive genes, MYC2, 3 and 4. This assay revealed not only differences in promoter strength but also provided quantitative insights on the JAZ3 repression of MYCs in a quantitative manner.
