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

Fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase (FAH) catalyzes the final step of the tyrosine degradation pathway. In this study, we isolated and characterized two homologous BnaFAH genes in Brassica napus L. variant Westar, and then used CRISPR/Cas9-mediated targeted mutagenesis to generate a series of transgene-free mutant lines either with single or double-null bnafah alleles. Among these mutant lines, the aacc (bnafah) double-null mutant line, rather than the aaCC (bnaa06fah) mutant line, exhibited programmed cell death (PCD) under short days (SD). Histochemical staining and content measurement confirmed that the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in bnafah was significantly higher than that in bnaa06fah. To further elucidate the mechanism of PCD, we performed transcriptomic analyses of bnaa06fah and bnafah at different SD stages. A heatmap cluster of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) revealed that PCD may be related to various redox regulatory genes involved in antioxidant activity, ROS-responsive regulation and calcium signaling. Combined with the results of previous studies, our work revealed that the expression levels of BnaC04CAT2, BnaA09/C09SAL1, BnaA08/C08ACO2, BnaA07/C06ERO1, BnaA08ACA1, BnaC04BIK1, BnaA09CRK36 and BnaA03CPK4 were significantly different and that these genes might be candidate hub genes for PCD. Together, our results underscore the ability of different PCD phenotypes to alter BnaFAH orthologs through gene editing and further elucidated the molecular mechanisms of oxidative stress-induced PCD in plants.
