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

MAIN

conclusionThis study revealed a substrate-level synthesis of pigment cyanidin-3-O-glucoside and the redirection of metabolomic flux in the flavonoid/anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway in poplar adventitious roots (ARs) induced by stem canker pathogens. Recently, we observed a novel allometry on poplar stems, with copious colorful adventitious roots (ARs) induced by fungal canker pathogens. Here, we reveal chemical, physiological, and molecular mechanisms of AR coloration in poplar-pathogens (Valsa sordida/Botrosphaeria dothidea) interaction system using our phloem girdling-inoculation system. Light-induced coloration in ARs: red/rosy under sunlight, and milky white under shading. Chemical and metabolomic analyses indicated that numerous (93 in all 110) and high relative intensities/contents of flavonoids metabolites (mainly including flavonols, flavones, and anthocyanins class) accumulate in red ARs, some flavones and anthocyanins metabolites all contribute to the color of poplar ARs, and cyanidin-3-O-glucoside is the most abundant colorant. Integrated analysis of metabolomic and transcriptomic analysis suggested that sunlight exposure redirected the metabolomic flux from the flavonoid biosynthesis pathway to the flavonols and flavones branch pathways, induced by the upregulation of FLS (flavonol synthase/flavanone 3-hydroxylase) and other structural genes. The anthocyanins metabolomic analysis and the downregulation of the ANS (anthocyanin synthase) gene illustrated a retard of metabolomic flux from leucoanthocyanidins to anthocyanidins. Metabolomic results and the upregulation of the gene BZ1 (Bronze 1, anthocyanin 3-O-glucosyltransferase) illustrated that sunlight triggered a rapid biosynthesis of anthocyanin metabolites in poplar ARs, which based on the substrate level of anthocyanidins. Transcriptomic and RT-qPCR analyses showed that transcriptional factor MYB113, HY5 (Elongated hypocotyl 5), and COP1 (Ring-finger protein CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENIC1) genes positively regulated the expression of the flavonoid/anthocyanin biosynthesis structural genes (such as the BZ1, FLS and LAR gene) in both sunlight-exposed red ARs and white ARs after light-exposure, suggesting sunlight induces anthocyanins biosynthesis through the interaction between "MBW" complex and COP1-HY5 module. Moreover, one SPL gene (squamosa promoter-binding-like protein gene, target of miR156, and one component of miR156-SPL module) was down-regulated in sunlight-exposed poplar ARs, implying the biosynthesis flavonoid/anthocyanin be regulated at the posttranscriptional level. This study provides a potential AR experimental system for research on flavonoid/anthocyanin biosynthesis in tree species.
