Studies on the function of TM20, a transmembrane protein present in cereal embryos.
Article in Planta, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 possible function of the maize transmembrane protein TM20 in hormone transport has been investigated using immunological methods and by microinjection of TM20 cRNA in Xenopus oocytes. The existence of a similar gene in rice indicates that the overall structure of the deduced protein is conserved between these two cereals. An antibody raised against a conserved motif, in a loop between two transmembrane domains, locates the protein (TM20) in differentiating provascular cells in maize embryo. The protein has a polarized distribution within the cell in the most differentiated stages of development. Xenopus laevis oocytes microinjected with TM20 appear to modify transport activities across the plasma membrane. These results are discussed in relation to other transport proteins that influence plant development.
