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

backgroundPythium myriotylum Drechsler is considered to be one of the pathogens of mung bean (Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczek) root rot, which threatens the yield of V. radiata. Pathogenesis-related protein 1 (PR1) is an important plant defense protein against various stressors. However, the role of PR1 in V. radiata resistance to P. myriotylum remains largely unknown.

resultsIn this study, we identified six PR1 family members containing the conserved CAPE1 (CAP-derived peptide 1) domain (PxGNxxxxxPY) through bioinformatic analysis of the V. radiata genome. VrPR1 expression was significantly induced after P. myriotylum infection in V. radiata plants, and three candidate genes (VrPR1-3, VrPR1-4, and VrPR1-6) were selected to investigate their molecular characteristics and roles in resistance to P. myriotylum. Subcellular localization analysis showed that these three PR1 proteins (VrPR1-3, VrPR1-4, and VrPR1-6) were localized to the extracellular space when ectopically expressed in Nicotiana benthamiana Domin leaves. VrPR1-3, VrPR1-4, and VrPR1-6 enhanced resistance to P. myriotylum, as demonstrated using Nicotiana benthamiana transient overexpression and V. radiata hairy root transformation systems. Actually, Transient overexpression of VrPR1-6 in Nicotiana benthamiana conferred enhanced resistance against P. myriotylum compared to the overexpression of VrPR1-3 or VrPR1-4. Further functional analysis using the Nicotiana benthamiana transient overexpression system indicated that the resistance conferred by PR1 depends on the C-terminal CAPE1 domain of VrPR1-6 protein. Furthermore, a comparative transcriptome analysis of hairy roots overexpressing VrPR1-6 and GFP showed that "plant-pathogen interaction" pathway genes, including 10 genes related to the Ca

conclusionsThis study revealed that overexpression of VrPR1-3, VrPR1-4 and VrPR1-6 enhanced the resistance of V. radiata to P. myriotylum. Among them, the resistance of VrPR1-6 depends on the C-terminal CAPE1 domain and may involve Ca2 + -mediated signaling. These findings establish a foundation for further research into the immune defense pathways of V. radiata against P. myriotylum.
