Genetic characterization of the polycotyledon locus in tomato.
Article in TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Developmental mutants serve as a useful material to unravel the mechanisms necessary for organ development. The polycotyledon (poc) mutant of tomato, with multiple cotyledons in the seedling and varied phenotypic effects in the adult plant is one such mutant. Studies using physiological and anatomical methods in our lab suggest that POC is involved in the negative regulation of polar auxin transport, which is likely the reason for the pleiotropic phenotype in the mutant. Because of the physiological significance of the polycotyledon mutant described in this paper and also being first of its kind in tomato and also other plant species, we are using a map-based cloning approach to map the polycotyledon gene. Molecular mapping of this locus using segregating interspecific F2 mapping population localized polycotyledon gene close to TG424 marker on the long arm of chromosome 9. The closest marker mapped was a PCR marker identified in this study, E8A2 at a distance of 7.4 cM from the poc locus. The absence of tightly linked RAPD markers and the non-availability of more mapped markers in this region led us to initiate chromosome walk to polycotyledon gene. Both the flanking markers TG248 and E8A2 were used to screen the BAC library and a contig was developed for TG248 marker. The BAC-end sequences were analyzed for their use as RFLP markers to enrich this region for markers. Analysis of the BAC-end sequences revealed that poc is localized in the region surrounded by copia-like retrotransposon elements explaining the absence of markers in the euchromatin region on long arm of chromosome 9. Further studies identified two BAC-end sequences which mapped around the poc locus and also indicated very low physical versus genetic distance ratio in this region. The double mutant analyses of poc with the other two known polycotyledon mutants of tomato, pct and dem revealed allelism with pct; therefore, the poc mutant was named as pct1-2, and also the original pct mutant was renamed as pct1-1.
