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

Bean common mosaic virus (BCMV) is a severe plant pathogen of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), that causes huge yield losses across the globe. The virus has a wide host range and varied modes of transmission, due to which its management is challenging. Pathogen-derived resistance, which entails inserting virus-derived gene sequences into transgenic plants, is extremely effective in overcoming plant viruses. However, owing to ethical and biosecurity concerns, transgenic crops have not been widely accepted. Exogenous application of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is a new and intriguing method for inducing resistance against plant viruses. In this study, the efficacy of exogenous application of dsRNAs synthesized from BCMV helper component proteinase (HC-Pro) and coat protein (CP) genes were assessed in three plants: tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), and cowpea (Vigna unguiculata), and both dsRNAs elicited a resistance response. dsRNA targeting the HC-Pro gene of BCMV was found more effective in inducing RNAi-based resistance than dsRNA targeting the CP gene of BCMV with a more pronounced effect in cowpea than tobacco and common bean. We showed the stability and transport of both dsHC-Pro and dsCP in inoculated to non-inoculated young leaves. We also showed the ability of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSP) conjugated with dsHC-Pro to provide prolonged stability and broader resistance against BCMV in common bean, extending protection from 12 dpi up to 20 dpi, compared to naked dsHC-Pro. Our results suggest that dsRNA produced from HC-Pro and CP genes of BCMV can induce RNAi-based resistance against BCMV infection.
