Cytoplasmic inheritance: The transmission of plastid and mitochondrial genomes across cells and generations.
Review in Plant physiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
In photosynthetic organisms, genetic material is stored in the nucleus and the two cytoplasmic organelles: plastids and mitochondria. While both the nuclear and cytoplasmic genomes are essential for survival, the inheritance of these genomes is subject to distinct laws. Cytoplasmic inheritance differs fundamentally from nuclear inheritance through two unique processes: vegetative segregation and uniparental inheritance. To illustrate the significance of these processes in shaping cytoplasmic inheritance, I will trace the journey of plastid and mitochondrial genomes, following their transmission from parents to progeny. The cellular and molecular mechanisms regulating their transmission along the path are explored. By providing a framework that encompasses the inheritance of both plastid and mitochondrial genomes across cells and generations, I aim to present a comprehensive overview of cytoplasmic inheritance and highlight the intricate interplay of cellular processes that determine inheritance patterns. I will conclude this review by summarizing recent breakthroughs in the field that have significantly advanced our understanding of cytoplasmic inheritance. This knowledge has paved the way for achieving the first instance of controlled cytoplasmic inheritance in plants, unlocking the potential to harness cytoplasmic genetics for crop improvement.
