Rhizoid differentiation of Spirogyra is regulated by substratum.
Article in Journal of plant research, 2008. 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
Some species of Spirogyra can anchor to substratum with rod- or rosette-shaped rhizoid (hapteron). The rhizoid differentiation can be induced by cutting algal filaments in a laboratory. Requirement of contact stimulation for rhizoid differentiation has been reported (Nagata in Plant Cell Physiol 14:531-541, 1973a). However, the control mechanism of rhizoid morphology has not been elucidated. When cut filaments were incubated on the glass surface, start of tip growth, secretion of lectin-binding material and callose synthesis were observed. In the absence of contact to the glass surface, none of above phenomena was induced. Systematic analysis showed that rosette-shaped rhizoid was formed only on the hydrophobic substratum. On the hydrophobic substratum, both Bandeiraea (Griffonia) simplicifolia lectin and jacalin strongly stained the rhizoids. On the hydrophilic substratum, however, only Bandeiraea (Griffonia) simplicifolia lectin strongly stained the rhizoids.
