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 objective of the current study was to simplify existing somatic embryogenesis systems in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) cv. Desiree. The project targeted the agar-based induction phase of the potato somatic embryogenesis process as the key area for improvement. Experiments were established to ascertain the effect of a 2,4-D (2,4 dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) pulse, applied to the primary internodal section explant source and its subsequent effect on embryo induction. Parameters tested were the duration of the auxin pulse in a range from 0 to 300 min, and the concentrations of 2,4-D applied, in a range from 0 to 5,120 microM. The mean number of somatic embryos formed per explant was recorded after 4 and 8 weeks culture. Our findings indicated that the somatic embryogenesis in potato internodal segments could be evoked by an auxin (2,4-D) pulse treatment over a wide concentration and duration range. The results further suggested that a simple 20 microM 2,4-D pulse treatment could replace a lengthy 2 week induction phase in potato somatic embryogenesis and thus improve the system's practicability for wider uptake.
