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

Plant roots possess remarkable regenerative potential owing to their ability to replenish damaged or lost stem cells. ETHYLENE RESPONSE FACTOR 115 (ERF115), one of the key molecular elements linked to this potential, plays a predominant role in the activation of regenerative cell divisions. However, the downstream operating molecular machinery driving wound-activated cell division is largely unknown. Here, we biochemically and genetically identified the GRAS-domain transcription factor SCARECROW-LIKE 5 (SCL5) as an interaction partner of ERF115 in Arabidopsis thaliana. Although nonessential under control growth conditions, SCL5 acts redundantly with the related PHYTOCHROME A SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION 1 (PAT1) and SCL21 transcription factors to activate the expression of the DNA-BINDING ONE FINGER 3.4 (DOF3.4) transcription factor gene. DOF3.4 expression is wound-inducible in an ERF115-dependent manner and, in turn, activates D3-type cyclin expression. Accordingly, ectopic DOF3.4 expression drives periclinal cell division, while its downstream D3-type cyclins are essential for the regeneration of a damaged root. Our data highlight the importance and redundant roles of the SCL5, SCL21, and PAT1 transcription factors in wound-activated regeneration processes and pinpoint DOF3.4 as a key downstream element driving regenerative cell division.
