The Egg apparatus 1 gene from maize is a member of a large gene family found in both monocots and dicots.
Article in Planta, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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 maize ZmEA1 protein was recently postulated to be involved in short-range pollen tube guidance from the embryo sac. To date, EA1-like sequences had only been identified in monocot species. Using a more conserved C-terminal motif found in the monocot species, numerous ZmEA1-like sequences were retrieved in EST databases from dicot species, as well as from unannotated genomic sequences of Arabidopsis thaliana. RT-PCR analyses were produced for these unannotated genes and showed that these were indeed expressed genes. Further structural and phylogenetic analyses revealed that all members of the EA1-like (EAL) gene family shared a conserved 27-29 amino acid motif, termed the EA box near the C-terminal end, and appear to be secretory proteins. Therefore, the EA box proteins defines a new class of small secretory proteins, some of which being possibly involved in pollen tube guidance.
