Horizontal transfer of transposable elements in plants.
Article in Communicative & integrative biology, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 analysis of genomes suggests that horizontal transfers are frequent phenomena. In eukaryotes these transfers often involve transposable elements and can be detected by sequence analysis or phylogenetic reconstruction. Nevertheless, the dynamics of transposable elements and reticulation in species history, especially in plants, can sometimes be misleading. While the horizontal transfer of transposable elements is well documented in animals, only two cases have been described in plants despite the abundance of these elements in plant genomes. The study of horizontal transfers of transposable elements in plants represents a new challenge to understand their impact on genomic diversity and consequently on the process of adaptation to their environment.
