Over-expression of StZFP2 in Solanum tuberosum L. var. Kennebec (potato) inhibits growth of Tobacco Hornworm larvae (THW, Manduca sexta L.).
Article in Plant signaling & behavior, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Tobacco hornworm (Manduca sexta, THW) is a voracious pest of tomato and potato. StZFP2 is a Q-type C2H2 zinc finger transcription factor (TF) that is induced upon wounding and infestation. Previous work has shown that Q-type C2H2 TFs are involved in stress responses and when over expressed, can enhance protection against drought, salinity or pathogen infection. Twelve transgenic lines (S1-S12) were tested that over-express StZFP2. Feeding S6 or S8 to THW significantly lowered larval weight (21-37%) as well as increased expression of StPIN2 in comparison to untransformed Kennebec. The increase in StPIN2, a classic marker for insect defense in potato, is consistent with the decreases in larval weight gain.
