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

3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGR) catalyzes a key step in isoprenoid metabolism leading to a range of compounds that are important for the growth, development and health of the plant. We have isolated 7 classes of genomic clones encoding HMGR from a potato genomic library. Comparison of nucleic acid sequences reveals a high degree of identity between all seven classes of clones and the potato hmg 1 gene described by Choi et al. (Plant Cell 4: 1333, 1992), indicating that all are members of the same subfamily in potato. A representative member (hmg 1.2) of the most abundant class of genomic clones was selected for further characterization. Transgenic tobacco and potato containing the beta-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene under the control of the hmg 1.2 promoter expressed GUS activity constitutively at a low level in many plant tissues. High levels of GUS activity were observed only in the pollen. GUS assays of isolated pollen, correlations of GUS activity with the HMGR activity of anthers, hmg 1.2 promoter deletion studies, and segregation analysis of the expression of hmg 1.2::GUS among the R2 pollen of R1 progeny plants demonstrated that the hmg 1.2 promoter controls pollen expression.
