Novel mutant phenotypes of a dark-germinating mutant dkg1 in the fern Ceratopteris richardii.
Article in Journal of plant research, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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 mutant dark-germinating 1 ( dkg1) of the fern Ceratopteris richardii was originally characterized by two phenotypes, germination in the dark and inhibition of germination by light. In this work, we examined whether other phenotypes are present in the gametophytic generation of the dkg1 mutant. Although dkg1 prothalli grown in darkness were elongated as in the case of the wild type, some developmental processes were found to proceed even in complete darkness: (1) the apical and subapical zones developed largely by forming a lateral meristem; (2) asymmetric cell division for rhizoid differentiation occurred in the subapical elongation zone; (3) an archegonium was formed in the proximity of the meristem; and (4) chloroplast relocation could occur without de novo protein synthesis. Furthermore, these processes were shown to be under the control of phytochrome in the wild-type gametophytes on the basis of red/far-red reversibility. These results indicate that the DKG1 gene is pleiotropic and is involved in several phytochrome-mediated responses in the gametophyte development of C. richardii.
