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

Starch biosynthesis is a critical factor in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) quality and yield. However, the full scope of its regulation is not fully understood. Here we report that TaDL interacts with TaB3 and TaNF-YB1 to synergistically regulate starch biosynthesis and quality in wheat. Genome-edited tadl mutant lines had smaller and lighter grains with lower total starch and amylose contents compared to wild type (WT). Correspondingly, the transcript levels of starch biosynthesis-related genes, including TaSUS1, TaSUS2, TaAGPL2, TaSBEIIa, TaGBSSII, and TaSWEET2a, were markedly lower at 15 d after flowering (DAF) in tadl mutants. TaDL physically interacted with TaB3 and TaNF-YB1 and activated the transcription of TaSUS2 and TaAGPL2 through direct binding to their promoter regions. A null mutant of TaB3 also affected grain filling, with phenotypes similar to those of tadl mutants, whereas overexpression of TaNF-YB1 promoted grain filling. Our study demonstrated that TaDL plays an essential role in starch biosynthesis and identified an elite allele (TaDL-BI) associated with starch content, providing insights into the underlying molecular mechanism of wheat grain filling, which may be useful in breeding of high-yielding wheat and quality improvement.
