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

Sulfur is an essential element required for plant growth and development, physiological processes and stress responses. Sulfur-encoding biosynthetic genes are involved in the primary sulfur assimilation pathway, regulating various mechanisms at the gene, cellular and system levels, and in the biosynthesis of sulfur-containing compounds (SCCs). In this study, the SCC-encoding biosynthetic genes in rice were identified using a sulfur-dependent model plant, the Arabidopsis. A total of 139 AtSCC from Arabidopsis were used as reference sequences in search of putative rice SCCs. At similarity index > 30%, the similarity search against Arabidopsis SCC query sequences identified 665 putative OsSCC genes in rice. The gene synteny analysis showed a total of 477 syntenic gene pairs comprised of 89 AtSCC and 265 OsSCC biosynthetic genes in Arabidopsis and rice, respectively. Phylogenetic tree of the collated (AtSCCs and OsSCCs) SCC-encoding biosynthetic genes were divided into 11 different clades of various sizes comprised of branches of subclades. In clade 1, nearing equal representation of OsSCC and AtSCC biosynthetic genes imply the most ancestral lineage. A total of 25 candidate Arabidopsis SCC homologs were identified in rice. The gene ontology enrichment analysis showed that the rice-Arabidopsis SCC homologs were significantly enriched in the following terms at false discovery rate (FDR) < 0.05: (i) biological process; sulfur compound metabolic process and organic acid metabolic processes, (ii) molecular function; oxidoreductase activity, acting on paired donors with incorporation or reduction of molecular oxygen and (iii) KEGG pathway; metabolic pathways and biosynthesis of secondary metabolites. At less than five duplicated blocks of separation, no tandem duplications were observed among the SCC biosynthetic genes distributed in rice chromosomes. The comprehensive rice SCC gene description entailing syntenic events with Arabidopsis, motif distribution and chromosomal mapping of the present findings offer a foundation for rice SCC gene functional studies and advanced strategic rice breeding.
