Agrobacterium-mediated root transformation is inhibited by mutation of an Arabidopsis cellulose synthase-like gene.
Article in Plant physiology, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 30 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
Agrobacterium-mediated plant genetic transformation involves a complex interaction between the bacterium and the host plant. Relatively little is known about the role plant genes and proteins play in this process. We previously identified an Arabidopsis mutant, rat4, that is resistant to Agrobacterium transformation. We show here that rat4 contains a T-DNA insertion into the 3'-untranslated region of the cellulose synthase-like gene CSLA9. CSLA9 transcripts are greatly reduced in the rat4 mutant. Genetic complementation of rat4 with wild-type genomic copies of the CSLA9 gene restores both transformation competence and the wild-type level of CSLA9 transcripts. The CSLA9 promoter shows a distinct pattern of expression in Arabidopsis plants. In particular, the promoter is active in the elongation zone of roots, the root tissue that we previously showed is most susceptible to Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Disruption of the CSLA9 gene in the rat4 mutant results in reduced numbers and rate of growth of lateral roots and reduced ability of the roots to bind A. tumefaciens cells under certain conditions. No major differences in the linkage structure of the non-cellulosic polysaccharides could be traced to the defective CSLA9 gene.
