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

MAIN

conclusionIdentification of PbLTP genes in pear and functional characterization of PbLTP4 in the transport of suberin monomers of russet skin formation. Non-specific lipid-transfer protein (nsLTP) is an abundant and diverse alkaline small molecule protein in the plant kingdom with complex and diverse biophysiological functions, such as transfer of phospholipids, reproductive development, pathogen defence and abiotic stress response. Up to now, only a tiny fraction of nsLTPs have been functionally identified, and the distribution of nsLTPs in pear (Pyrus bretschneideri) (PbLTPs) has not been fully characterized. In this study, the genome-wide analysis of the nsLTP gene family in the pear genome identified 67 PbLTP proteins, which could be divided into six types (1, 2, C, D, E, and G). Similar intron/exon structural patterns were observed in the same type, strongly supporting their close evolutionary relationship. In addition, PbLTP4 was highly expressed in russet pear skin compared with green skin, which was located in the plasma membrane. Coexpression network analysis showed that PbLTP4 closely related to suberin biosynthetic genes. The biological function of PbLTP4 in promoting suberification has been demonstrated by overexpression in Arabidopsis. Identification of suberin monomers showed that PbLTP4 promotes suberification by regulating 9,12-octadecadienoic acid and hexadecanoic acid transport. These results provide helpful insights into the characteristics of PbLTP genes and their biological function in the transport of suberin monomers of russet skin formation.
