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

Non-coding cis-regulatory variants in animal genomes are an important driving force in the evolution of transcription regulation and phenotype diversity. However, cistrome dynamics in plants remain largely underexplored. Here, we compare the binding of GOLDEN2-LIKE (GLK) transcription factors in tomato, tobacco, Arabidopsis, maize and rice. Although the function of GLKs is conserved, most of their binding sites are species-specific. Conserved binding sites are often found near photosynthetic genes dependent on GLK for expression, but sites near non-differentially expressed genes in the glk mutant are nevertheless under purifying selection. The binding sites' regulatory potential can be predicted by machine learning model using quantitative genome features and TF co-binding information. Our study show that genome cis-variation caused wide-spread TF binding divergence, and most of the TF binding sites are genetically redundant. This poses a major challenge for interpreting the effect of individual sites and highlights the importance of quantitatively measuring TF occupancy.
