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

Zymoseptoria tritici is an ascomycete fungus and the causal agent of Septoria tritici leaf blotch (STB) in wheat. Z. tritici secretes an array of effector proteins that are likely to facilitate host infection, colonisation and pycnidia production. In this study we demonstrate a role for Zt-11 as a Z. tritici effector during disease progression. Zt-11 is upregulated during the transition of the pathogen from the biotrophic to necrotrophic phase of wheat infection. Deletion of Zt-11 delayed disease development in wheat, reducing the number and size of pycnidia, as well as the number of macropycnidiospores produced by Z. tritici. This delayed disease development by the ΔZt-11 mutants was accompanied by a lower induction of PR genes in wheat, when compared to infection with wildtype Z. tritici. Overall, these data suggest that Zt-11 plays a role in Z. tritici aggressiveness and STB disease progression possibly via a salicylic acid associated pathway.
