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

Trichomes in Prunus persica (L.) Batsch are crucial specialized structures that play a protective role against both biotic and abiotic stresses. The fruits with and without trichomes are respectively named as peach and nectarine. At the genetic level, the formation of trichome in peach is controlled by a single gene, PpMYB25, at the G locus. Peach (GG or Gg) is dominant to nectarine (gg), but such regulatory role was reported in a small-scale accession. In this study, we performed large-scale genotype and phenotype screening on 295 accessions. Almost all accessions supported the casual relationship between trichome formation and PpMYB25. However, a peach to nectarine mutant, named Maravilha Nectarine Mutant (MN), was discovered to possess a putative functional PpMYB25 gene sequence (Gg) but revealed nectarine phenotype. Comparative transcriptomic analyses revealed that PpMYB25 transcript was absent in MN. Correlation analyses also demonstrated that the PpMYB25-mediated regulatory network was abolished in MN. In summary, our results demonstrated an alternative mechanism beyond genetic regulation on trichome formation.
