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

key messageEditing of ACO genes involved in ethylene biosynthesis pathway reduces ethylene production in petunia seeds and inhibits seed germination. Ethylene production in the seeds of Petunia hybrida cv. 'Mirage Rose' was associated with expression of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) oxidase (ACO) genes (PhACO1, PhACO3, and PhACO4). Suppression of their expression by ethylene inhibitor silver thiosulphate (STS) significantly reduced ethylene production and inhibited seed germination. When it was combined with ethylene precursor ACC, ethylene production was re-promoted via activation of the genes and higher seed germination was restored. This was confirmed using the mutants editing the genes and WT. In the present study, compared with wild type plants, three different mutants (phaco1, phaco3, and phaco4) showed significantly decreased germination percentages as well as delayed germination time and seedling growth. These reductions were associated with lighter seed weight, lower ACO transcript levels, and lower ethylene production in mutants. Inhibited seed germination owing to reduced ethylene production was further verified by the supplementation of exogenous ACC and gibberellic acid (GA
