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

backgroundThe flowering and tuberization are controlled by common determinants that mediate the regulation of both processes. Among transcription regulators involved in light-dependent aspects of growth and development are B-box zinc finger proteins. To gain a better understanding of the StBBX24 role in flowering and tuber formation, we aimed to investigate the regulatory network of StBBX24 in apical shoot parts at different stages of development and in stolons at the hook stage of tuber formation in StBBX24-silenced and -overexpressed lines using RNA-seq. In addition, we intended to identify StBBX24-targeted genes specific to the light-dark cycle and potentially involved in potato reproduction by performing CHIP-seq.

resultsThe genome-wide analysis of StBBX24 binding sites identified numerous light- and dark-specific targets, among them those participating in the induction of flowering and floral development. RNA-seq analysis of the apical shoot parts of StBBX24-silenced and -overexpressed lines revealed substantial modifications in the expression of genes functioning in the flowering process. Furthermore, hook-stage stolons transcriptomics of the transgenic lines revealed that the StBBX24 protein also affects the tuberization process through alteration of the expression of genes participating in stolon-to-tuber transition.

conclusionsAltogether, these data reveal that StBBX24 is involved in potato flowering repression and impedes the formation of tubers. Our results provided a more comprehensive understanding of the molecular basis of potato reproduction and the participation of the StBBX24 protein in this process.
