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

backgroundGenome editing using CRISPR/Cas9 (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/CRISPR-associated protein 9) has emerged as a promising approach for functional gene analysis and genetic improvement. Since stable transformation remains the primary method for implementing this system, the ultimate goal in crop breeding programs would require the selection of transgene-free plants with the CRISPR/Cas expression cassette removed.

resultsIn this study, we developed an endosperm-specific fluorescence reporter-assisted selection system for CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing (pAZS22-eGFP/CRISPR/Cas9) in maize (Zea mays L.), utilizing enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) expressed specifically in the endosperm to facilitate the easy identification of transgenic and transgene-free plants from the T

conclusionsThe pAZS22-eGFP/CRISPR/Cas9 system provides an efficient tool for gene editing, transformant selection and transgene status identification in maize breeding.
