Improving cellular properties for genetic manipulation by dispersed growing mutagenesis in Myxococcus fulvus HW-1.
Article in Current microbiology, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
One of the key limitations to genetic manipulation in myxobacteria is that the cells grow in clumps in liquid. A salt-tolerant strain HW-1 of Myxococcus fulvus was treated with UV irradiation and produced a completely dispersedly growing mutant UV684. There were no significant differences between the parent HW-1 and the mutant UV684 in terms of salt-tolerant growth. The mutant UV684 and the parent strain had the similar abilities of the fruiting body formation and S motility. Interestingly, the mutant exhibited high transformation/transposition efficiency with 10(5)-10(6) colony-forming units per microg DNA, which was about 10(3)-10(5) fold higher than HW-1. The results indicate that the mutation that led to dispersed growth in the UV684 mutant strain had a few impacts on social behavior, but greatly facilitated molecular genetic manipulation.
