Trichome regulator SlMIXTA-like directly manipulates primary metabolism in tomato fruit.
Article in Plant biotechnology journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 40 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
Trichomes are storage compartments for specialized metabolites in many plant species. In trichome, plant primary metabolism is significantly changed, providing substrates for downstream secondary metabolism. However, little is known of how plants coordinate trichome formation and primary metabolism regulation. In this report, tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) trichome regulator SlMIXTA-like is indicated as a metabolic regulation gene by mGWAS analysis. Overexpression of SlMIXTA-like in tomato fruit enhances trichome formation. In addition, SlMIXTA-like can directly bind to the promoter region of gene encoding 3-deoxy-7-phosphoheptulonate synthase (SlDAHPS) to activate its expression. Induction of SlDAHPS expression enhances shikimate pathway activities and provides substrates for downstream secondary metabolism. Our data provide direct evidence that trichome regulator can directly manipulate primary metabolism, in which way plants can coordinate metabolic regulation and the formation of storage compartments for specialized metabolites. The newly identified SlMIXTA-like can be used for future metabolic engineering.
