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

Plants are equipped with multi-layered immune systems that recognize pathogen-derived elicitors to activate immunity. Verticillium dahliae is a soil-borne fungus that infects a broad range of plants and causes devastating wilt disease. The mechanisms underlying immune recognition between plants and V. dahliae remain elusive. Here, a V. dahliae secretory protein, elicitor of plant defense gene (VdEPD1), acts as an elicitor that triggers defense responses in both Nicotiana benthamiana and cotton plants is identified. Targeted gene deletion of VdEPD1 enhances V. dahliae virulence in plants. Expression of VdEPD1 triggers the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the activation of cell death in cotton plants. Gossypium barbadense EPD1-interacting receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase (GbEIR5A) and GbEIR5D interact with VdEPD1. Silencing of GbEIR5A/D significantly impairs VdEPD1-triggered cell death in cotton plants, indicating the contribution of GbEIR5A/D to VdEPD1-activated effector-triggered immunity (ETI). VdEPD1 stimulates the expression of GbEIR5A and GbEIR5D in cotton plants. Interestingly, cotton plants with silenced GbEIR5A/D genes exhibit compromised pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs)-triggered ROS accumulation, whereas overexpression of GbEIR5A or GbEIR5D enhances PAMP-induced ROS. These findings indicate that recognition of VdEPD1 potentiates GbEIRs to enhance cotton PAMP-triggered immunity (PTI), uncovering a cooperative interplay of PTI and ETI in cotton.
