Expression and post-transcriptional regulation of maize transposable element MuDR and its derivatives.
Article in The Plant cell, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 26 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 transposition of Mu elements underlying Mutator activity in maize requires a transcriptionally active MuDR element. Despite variation in MuDR copy number and RNA levels in Mutator lines, transposition events are consistently late in plant development, and Mu excision frequencies are similar. Here, we report previously unsuspected and ubiquitous MuDR homologs that produce both RNA and protein. MuDR transcript levels are proportional to MuDR copy number, and homolog transcript levels increase in active Mutator lines. A subset of homologs exhibits constitutive transcription in MuDR(-) and epigenetically silenced MuDR lines, suggesting independent transcriptional regulation. Surprisingly, immunodetection demonstrated nearly invariant levels of MuDR and homolog protein products in all tested Mutator and non-Mutator stocks. These results suggest a strict control over protein production, which might explain the uniform excision frequency of Mu elements. Moreover, the nonfunctional proteins encoded by homologs may negatively regulate Mutator activity and represent part of the host defense against this transposon family.
