MSI-99, a magainin analogue, imparts enhanced disease resistance in transgenic tobacco and banana.
Article in Planta, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 34 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
Magainin is one of the earliest reported antimicrobial peptides isolated from skin secretions of the African clawed frog Xenopus laevis. A synthetic substitution analogue of magainin, MSI-99, is employed in this study to impart disease resistance in transgenic tobacco ( Nicotiana tabacumL.) and banana [( Musaspp. cv. Rasthali (AAB)]. This peptide inhibited the growth and spore germination of Fusarium oxysporumf.sp. cubenseat 16 micro g/ml. MSI-99 has been subcloned into plant expression vectors pMSI164 and pMSI168, targeting the peptide into the cytoplasm and extracellular spaces, respectively. Tobacco plants transformed with pMSI168 showed enhanced resistance against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Alternaria alternataand Botrytis cinerea. Transgenic banana pants were obtained for both pMSI164 and pMSI168 transformations and showed resistance to F. oxysporumf.sp. cubenseand Mycosphaerella musicola. The transgenic nature of the transformants and expression of this peptide was confirmed through polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and reverse transcription (RT)-PCR. The results suggest that MSI-99 can be useful in imparting enhanced disease resistance in transgenic plants.
