RNA interference-mediated knockdown of genes involved in sugar transport and metabolism disrupts psyllid
Article in Frontiers in insect science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Introduction: The causal agent of zebra chip of potato and vein-greening diseases of tomato is " Methods: Here, five potato psyllid genes involved in sugar homeostasis in the potato psyllid gut, α-glucosidase1 ( Results: The individual or stacked dsRNA combinations resulted in 20-60% and 20-40% knockdown, respectively, while subsequent psyllid mortality ranged from 20-40% to >60% for single and stacked dsRNA combinations, respectively. Reverse genetics analysis showed that simultaneous knockdown of the five selected candidate genes with predicted functions in pathways involved in sugar-homeostasis, metabolism, and -transport yielded the highest mortality, when compared with single or combinations of targets. Discussion: Results confirmed the functions afforded by psyllid gut genes responsible for osmotic homeostasis and sugar metabolism/transport are essential for livelihood, identifying them as potentially lucrative RNAi biopesticide targets and highlighted the translational relevance of targeting multiple nodes in a physiological pathway simultaneously.
