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

We have observed numerous examples of silent or rare non-silent editing sites in the amino-extension and part of the conserved core of mitochondrial atp6 transcripts of Sorghum. In this region of the 1.4-kb atp6-2 mRNA (position 300 to 550) two editing sites, which alter the amino-acid sequence and occur in all cDNAs analysed, were already known, while nine others were found which are silent or occur in a few mRNAs only. Many aspects of RNA editing in the mitochondria of higher plants are still unknown. This includes the influence of genomic background or silent RNA editing. We were interested in the influence of nuclear and mitochondrial backgrounds on RNA editing. Previous preliminary results indicated the possibility of line-specific editing at silent sites. However, a more comprehensive approach gave no consistent evidence for such editing. These results are discussed with respect to their potential impact on the evolution of mitochondrial genes.
