The restorer Rfo gene acts post-translationally on the stability of the ORF138 Ogura CMS-associated protein in reproductive tissues of rapeseed cybrids.
Article in Plant molecular biology, 1999. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 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
This paper describes the analysis of the effect of the restorer gene Rfo on the expression of the ORF138 protein associated with Ogura cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) which has been engineered in rapeseed by protoplast fusion. We show that the presence of the Rfo gene in the genome of the plants decreases the amount of ORF138 protein in floral buds, this effect being the most dramatic in anthers at the stage of development when the sterile phenotype is normally expressed. However, the amount of orf138 transcripts is not affected by the Rfo gene in the same organs at the same stages. Total polysome analyses of buds and anthers show that the orf138 transcripts are translated with the same efficiency in sterile and restored plants. From these results we infer that the Rfo gene product acts on the post-translational stability of the ORF138 protein, leading to a decrease in the accumulation of the protein and a restoration of fertility.
