A key antisense sRNA modulates the oxidative stress response and virulence in Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola.
Article in PLoS pathogens, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Pathogens integrate multiple environmental signals to navigate the host and control the expression of virulence genes. In this process, small regulatory noncoding RNAs (sRNAs) may function in gene expression as post-transcriptional regulators. In this study, the sRNA Xonc3711 functioned in the response of the rice pathogen, Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc), to oxidative stress. Xonc3711 repressed production of the DNA-binding protein Xoc_3982 by binding to the xoc_3982 mRNA within the coding region. Mutational analysis showed that regulation required an antisense interaction between Xonc3711 and xoc_3982 mRNA, and RNase E was needed for degradation of the xoc_3982 transcript. Deletion of Xonc3711 resulted in a lower tolerance to oxidative stress due to the repression of flagella-associated genes and reduced biofilm formation. Furthermore, ChIP-seq and electrophoretic mobility shift assays showed that Xoc_3982 repressed the transcription of effector xopC2, which contributes to virulence in Xoc BLS256. This study describes how sRNA Xonc3711 modulates multiple traits in Xoc via signals perceived from the external environment.
