The Arabidopsis-mei2-like genes play a role in meiosis and vegetative growth in Arabidopsis.

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 Arabidopsis-mei2-Like (AML) genes comprise a five-member gene family related to the mei2 gene, which is a master regulator of meiosis in Schizosaccharomyces pombe and encodes an RNA binding protein. We have analyzed the AML genes to assess their role in plant meiosis and development. All five AML genes were expressed in both vegetative and reproductive tissues. Analysis of AML1-AML5 expression at the cellular level indicated a closely similar expression pattern. In the inflorescence, expression was concentrated in the shoot apical meristem, young buds, and reproductive organ primordia. Within the reproductive organs, strong expression was observed in meiocytes and developing gametes. Functional analysis using RNA interference (RNAi) and combinations of insertion alleles revealed a role for the AML genes in meiosis, with RNAi lines and specific multiple mutant combinations displaying sterility and a range of defects in meiotic chromosome behavior. Defects in seedling growth were also observed at low penetrance. These results indicate that the AML genes play a role in meiosis as well as in vegetative growth and reveal conservation in the genetic mechanisms controlling meiosis in yeast and plants.
