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

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) contribute to cellular damage in several different contexts, but their role during chilling damage is poorly defined. Chilling sensitivity both limits the distribution of plant species and causes devastating crop losses worldwide. Our screen of chilling-tolerant Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) for mutants that suffer chilling damage identified a gene (At4g03410) encoding a chloroplast Mpv17_PMP22 protein, MPD1, with no previous connection to chilling. The chilling-sensitive mpd1-1 mutant is an overexpression allele that we successfully phenocopied by creating transgenic lines with a similar level of MPD1 overexpression. In mammals and yeast, MPD1 homologs are associated with ROS management. In chilling conditions, Arabidopsis overexpressing MPD1 accumulated H2O2 to higher levels than wild-type controls and exhibited stronger induction of ROS response genes. Paraquat application exacerbated chilling damage, confirming that the phenotype occurs due to ROS dysregulation. We conclude that at low temperature increased MPD1 expression results in increased ROS production, causing chilling damage. Our discovery of the effect of MPD1 overexpression on ROS production under chilling stress implies that investigation of the nine other members of the Mpv17_PMP22 family in Arabidopsis may lead to new discoveries regarding ROS signaling and management in plants.
