The chloroplast sulfate transport system in the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.
Article in Planta, 2008. 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 genome of the model unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii contains four distinct genes, SulP, SulP2, Sbp and Sabc, which together are postulated to encode a chloroplast envelope-localized sulfate transporter holocomplex. In this work, evidence is presented that regulation of expression of SulP2, Sbp and Sabc is specifically modulated by sulfur availability to the cells. Induction of transcription and higher steady-state levels of the respective mRNAs are reported under S-deprivation conditions. No such induction could be observed under N or P deprivation conditions. Expression, localization, and complex-association of the Sabc protein was specifically investigated using cellular and chloroplast fractionations, BN-PAGE, SDS-PAGE and Western blot analyses. It is shown that Sabc protein levels in the cells increased under S-deprivation conditions, consistent with the observed induction of Sabc gene transcription. It is further shown that the Sabc protein co-localizes with SulP to the chloroplast envelope. Blue-native PAGE followed by Western blot analysis revealed the presence of an apparent 380 kDa complex in C. reinhardtii, specifically recognized by polyclonal antibodies against SulP and Sabc. These results suggest the presence and function in C. reinhardtii of a Sbp-SulP-SulP2-Sabc chloroplast envelope sulfate transporter holocomplex.
