1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Protoplasts were isolated from two isolates each of Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae using lysing enzymes. Intra- and intergeneric protoplast fusion has been carried out using 40% polyethylene glycol. The fused protoplasts of B. bassiana and M. anisopliae have been regenerated on Czapek-Dox agar media, and a total of four fusants were selected for further studies. An increase in proteinase and chitinase enzyme activity was recorded with all fusants as compared to the wild-type isolates. To understand the nature of recombination process, random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) were carried out on genomic DNA of fused and wild-type isolates. The present study demonstrates the scope and significance of the protoplast fusion technique as a rapid consistent method for identification of B. bassiana and M. anisopliae fused and wild-type isolates based on the banding pattern of RAPD and RFLP that can be reliably used ahead for further applications on these species.
