1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 elimination of marker genes after selection is recommended for the commercial use of genetically modified plants. We compared the applicability of the two site-specific recombination systems Cre/lox and Flp/FRT for marker gene elimination in maize plants. The selection marker gene pat surrounded by two identically directed lox or FRT sites was introduced into maize. Sexual crossing with plants harboring the corresponding constitutively expressed recombinase led to the precise and complete excision of the lox-flanked marker gene in the F1 progeny, whereas Flp-mediated recombination of FRT sequences occurred rarely. Further examination of site-specific integration was done by biolistic bombardment of immature embryos harboring only one lox site with a lox.uidA sequence with results indicating directed integration.
