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

In vitro clonal propagation of plants should generate identical copies of the selected genotype. However, associated stress might result in a breakdown of control mechanisms and consequent instability of the genome. We have used several molecular methods to assess the genetic stability of long-term propagated (24 years) multiple shoot in vitro culture of pea (Pisum sativum L.). We focused on assessing the stability of repetitive sequences, such as simple sequence repeats (SSR) and retrotransposons, both comprising a large part of genome. No differences were found when seedlings (Co-2004) or original seed (Co-1982) controls and long-term or newly established in vitro (one subculture cycle) samples were investigated by the SSR, inter-repeats (ISSR) or inter-retrotransposon amplified polymorphism (IRAP) method. However, the more global amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) and particularly the methylation sensitive MSAP methods detected 11 and 18% polymorphism among samples, respectively. Interestingly, investigation of the global cytosine methylation status by HPCE measurement revealed no statistically significant differences. Some evidence of retrotransposon re-arrangement was observed by sequence-specific amplification polymorphism. This occurred mostly in the abundant Ty3-gypsy type Cyclop element and to a smaller extent in the Ogre element. Alternatively, no polymorphism was detected among the PDR-1 element of the Ty1-copia type retrotransposon. Based on these results, multiple shoot culture of pea maintained over a long period may be considered as a true to type multiplication method of the original genotype.
