A chemical window into the impact of RNAi silencing of the StNAC103 gene in potato tuber periderms: Soluble metabolites, suberized cell walls, and antibacterial defense.

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
The growth and survival of terrestrial plants require control of their interactions with the environment, e.g., to defend against desiccation and microbial invasion. For major food crops, the protection conferred by the outer skins (periderm in potato) is essential to cultivation, storage, and marketing of the edible tubers and fruits. Potatoes are particularly vulnerable to bacterial infections due to their high content of water and susceptibility to mechanical wounding. Recently, both specific and conserved gene silencing (StNAC103-RNAi and StNAC103-RNAi-c, respectively) were found to increase the load of wax and aliphatic suberin depolymerization products in tuber periderm, implicating this NAC gene as a repressor of the wax and suberin biosynthetic pathways. However, an important gap in our understanding of StNAC103 silencing concerns the metabolites produced in periderm cells as antimicrobial defense agents and potential building blocks of the deposited suberin biopolymer. In the current work, we have expanded prior studies on StNAC103 silenced lines by conducting comprehensive parallel analyses to profile changes in chemical constituents and antibacterial activity.
