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

Carrots (Daucus carota L.) are plants rich in carotenoids, which are mainly stored in special plastids called chromoplasts. Fibrillin (FBN), a plastid lipid-associated protein, is involved in the structural composition of plastids and plays an important role in the storage of carotenoids. In this study, seven DcFBN genes were identified based on the carrot transcriptome and genome database distributing on 7 chromosomes, with molecular weight between 23.77 ~ 65.32 kDa and isoelectric point between 4.58 and 9.52. The 43 FBN proteins derived from 5 plant species were classified into 7 groups by conducting phylogenetic, conserved motif and gene structure analyses. In the analysis of promoter cis-acting elements, it was found that the promoter regions of DcFBN genes were rich in various light-responsive elements and hormone-responsive elements. In addition, we also compared the changes of promoter activity under different hormone treatments by β-glucuronidase (GUS) histochemical staining and GUS gene quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR). The results showed that the promoter of DcFBN10 had the strongest response to SA treatment, and the expression of GUS reporter gene was significantly increased, reaching 5.79-fold that of the control. RT-qPCR analysis of DcFBN genes showed that the expression levels of most members of DcFBN genes in leaves were higher than that in roots. The expression level in roots was high in yellow, purple and orange varieties, relatively lower in white. This study provided a potential reference for the function of DcFBN gene family, and provided basic information for the follow-up study of the role of DcFBN gene in carotenoid accumulation in chromoplasts.
