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

Rice blast, caused by Magnaporthe oryzae, is one of the most devastating diseases of rice. During infection, M. oryzae secretes effectors to facilitate blast development. Among these effectors, the avirulence factor AvrPi9 is recognized by Pi9, a broad-spectrum blast resistance protein that triggers Pi9-mediated resistance in rice. However, little is known about the interaction between AvrPi9 and Pi9 and how AvrPi9 exerts virulence to promote infection. In this study, we found that ectopic expression of AvrPi9 in the Pi9-lacking cultivar TP309 suppressed basal resistance against M. oryzae. Furthermore, we identified an AvrPi9-interacting protein in rice, which we named OsRGLG5, encoding a functional RING-type E3 ubiquitin ligase. During infection, AvrPi9 was ubiquitinated and degraded by OsRGLG5. Meanwhile, AvrPi9 affected the stability of OsRGLG5. Infection assays revealed that OsRGLG5 is a positive regulator of basal resistance against M. oryzae, but it is not essential for Pi9-mediated blast resistance in rice. In conclusion, our results revealed that OsRGLG5 is targeted by the M. oryzae effector AvrPi9 and positively regulates basal resistance against rice blast.
