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

backgroundThe glyoxalase system includes glyoxalase I (GLXI), glyoxalase II (GLXII) and glyoxalase III (GLXIII), which are responsible for methylglyoxal (MG) detoxification and involved in abiotic stress responses such as drought, salinity and heavy metal.

resultsIn this study, a total of 620 GLX family genes were identified from 21 different plant species. The results of evolutionary analysis showed that GLX genes exist in all species from lower plants to higher plants, inferring that GLX genes might be important for plants, and GLXI and GLXII account for the majority. In addition, motif showed an expanding trend in the process of evolution. The analysis of cis-acting elements in 21 different plant species showed that the promoter region of the GLX genes were rich in phytohormones and biotic and abiotic stress-related elements, indicating that GLX genes can participate in a variety of life processes. In cotton, GLXs could be divided into two groups and most GLXIs distributed in group I, GLXIIs and GLXIIIs mainly belonged to group II, indicating that there are more similarities between GLXII and GLXIII in cotton evolution. The transcriptome data analysis and quantitative real-time PCR analysis (qRT-PCR) show that some members of GLX family would respond to high temperature treatment in G.hirsutum. The protein interaction network of GLXs in G.hirsutum implied that most members can participate in various life processes through protein interactions.

conclusionsThe results elucidated the evolutionary history of GLX family genes in plants and lay the foundation for their functions analysis in cotton.
