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 AP2/ERF is one of the largest gene families in plants, which plays an important role in plant growth and development and resistance to stresses. However, the quantity, evolutionary characteristics and expression characteristics in different tissues of this gene family in Rosa roxburghii are still unknown.

resultsIn this study, 106 members of the AP2/ERF gene family were identified in the genome of Rosa roxburghii. These members are unevenly distributed on seven chromosomes, and most of them are predicted to be located in the nucleus. Phylogenetic analysis reveals that all the family members are classified into four subfamilies, DREB, ERF, AP2 and RAV with their numbers being 31, 57, 14 and 4 respectively. Analysis of cis-acting elements, conserved motifs, and gene structure shows that a large number of cis-acting elements related to hormones and stress are found. Furthermore, the conserved motif 1 is present in all family members, and except for the RAV subfamily, each subfamily contains unique motifs. However, the gene structure of AP2 subfamily is obviously different from the other three subfamilies, which contains more specific motifs and cds. Segmental duplication and synteny analysis reveal that the number of AP2/ERF varies greatly among Rosaceae, and segmental duplication is one of the important factors for the expansion of the AP2/ERF family in Rosa roxburghii. Furthermore, based on transcriptome data and RT-qPCR, the specific expression characteristics of AP2/ERF genes and their alternative splicing in eight different tissues of Rosa roxburghii were presented and verified.

conclusionsIn conclusion, this study comprehensively identified and analyzed the classification, evolution, and expression characteristics of the AP2/ERF family genes in Rosa roxburghii, and provided a reference for further molecular breeding of Rosa roxburghii.
