Chromosome territory arrangement and homologous pairing in nuclei of Arabidopsis thaliana are predominantly random except for NOR-bearing chromosomes.
Article in Chromosoma, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 110 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
Differential painting of all five chromosome pairs of Arabidopsis thaliana revealed for the first time the interphase chromosome arrangement in a euploid plant. Side-by-side arrangement of heterologous chromosome territories and homologous association of chromosomes 1, 3 and 5 (on average in 35-50% of nuclei) are in accordance with the random frequency predicted by computer simulations. Only the nucleolus organizing region (NOR)-bearing chromosome 2 and 4 homologs associate more often than randomly, since NORs mostly attach to a single nucleolus. Somatic pairing of homologous approximately 100 kb segments occurs less frequently than homolog association, not significantly more often than expected at random and not simultaneously along the homologs. Thus, chromosome arrangement in Arabidopsis differs from that in Drosophila (characterized by somatic pairing of homologs), in spite of similar genome size, sequence organization and chromosome number. Nevertheless, in up to 31.5% of investigated Arabidopsis nuclei allelic sequences may share positions close enough for homologous recombination.
