Connections between polar growth and cell cycle arrest during the induction of the virulence program in the phytopathogenic fungus Ustilago maydis.
Article in Plant signaling & behavior, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Elegant work by others has highlighted the importance of connections between polar growth and cell cycle regulation in budding and fission yeast. However, it is striking that little attention has been paid to the study of these connections in phytopathogenic fungi. In these crop pests, germination of spores, the main infective agent, requires a strict control of cell cycle regulation as well as polarity growth. Our finding that a cyclin-cdk pair controls both processes in the corn smut fungus Ustilago maydis supports the importance of such a regulation during the pathogenic development of fungi.
