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 messageYellow Petal locus GaYP is located on chromosome 11 and encodes a Sg6 R2R3-MYB transcription factor, which promotes flavonol biosynthesis and yellow coloration in Asiatic cotton petals. Petal color is pivotal to ornamental value and reproduction of plants. Yellow coloration in plant petals is mainly attributed to colorants including carotenoids, aurones and some flavonols. To date, the genetic regulatory mechanism of flavonol biosynthesis in petals is still to be elucidated. Here, we employed Asiatic cottons with or without deep yellow coloration in petals to address this question. Multi-omic and biochemical analysis revealed significantly up-regulated transcription of flavonol structural genes and increased levels of flavonols, especially gossypetin and 6-hydroxykaempferol, in yellow petals of Asiatic cotton. Furthermore, the Yellow Petal gene (GaYP) was mapped on chromosome 11 by using a recombinant inbred line population. It was found that GaYP encoded a transcriptional factor belonging to Sg6 R2R3-MYB proteins. GaYP could bind to the promoter of flavonol synthase gene (GaFLS) and activate the transcription of downstream genes. Knocking out of GaYP or GaFLS homologs in upland cotton largely eliminated flavonol accumulation and pale yellow coloration in petals. Our results indicated that flavonol synthesis, up-regulated by the R2R3-MYB transcription activator GaYP, was the causative factor for yellow coloration of Asiatic cotton petals. In addition, knocking out of GaYP homologs also led to decrease in anthocyanin accumulation and petal size in upland cotton, suggesting that GaYP and its homologs might modulate developmental or physiological processes beyond flavonol biosynthesis.
