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

The circadian clock entrained by environmental light-dark cycles enables plants to fine-tune diurnal growth and developmental responses. Here, we show that physical interactions among evening clock components, including PSEUDO-RESPONSE REGULATOR 5 (PRR5), TIMING OF CAB EXPRESSION 1 (TOC1), and the Evening Complex (EC) component EARLY FLOWERING 3 (ELF3), define a diurnal repressive chromatin structure specifically at the PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTOR 4 (PIF4) locus in Arabidopsis. These three clock components act interdependently as well as independently to repress nighttime hypocotyl elongation, as hypocotyl elongation rate dramatically increased specifically at nighttime in the prr5-1 toc1-21 elf3-1 mutant, concomitantly with a substantial increase in PIF4 expression. Transcriptional repression of PIF4 by ELF3, PRR5, and TOC1 is mediated by the SWI2/SNF2-RELATED (SWR1) chromatin remodeling complex, which incorporates histone H2A.Z at the PIF4 locus, facilitating robust epigenetic suppression of PIF4 during the evening. Overall, these findings demonstrate that the PRR-EC-SWR1 complex represses hypocotyl elongation at night through a distinctive chromatin domain covering PIF4 chromatin.
