Ac insertion site affects the frequency of transposon-induced homologous recombination at the maize p1 locus.
Article in Genetics, 2000. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
The maize p1 gene regulates the production of a red pigment in the kernel pericarp, cob, and other maize floral tissues. Insertions of the transposable element Ac can induce recombination between two highly homologous 5.2-kb direct repeat sequences that flank the p1 gene-coding region. Here, we tested the effects of the Ac insertion site and orientation on the induction of recombination at the p1 locus. A collection of unique p1 gene alleles was used, which carry Ac insertions at different sites in and near the p1 locus, outside of the direct repeats, within the direct repeat sequences, and between the direct repeats, in both orientations. Recombination was scored by the numbers of colorless pericarp sectors (somatic frequency) and heritable mutations (germinal frequency). In both the somatic and germinal tests, the frequency of homologous recombination is significantly higher when Ac is inserted between the direct repeats than when Ac is inserted either within or outside the repeats. In contrast, Ac orientation had no significant effect on recombination frequency. We discuss these results in terms of the possible mechanisms of transposon-induced recombination.
