Transient overexpression of E2Fb triggers cell divisions in pavement cells of Nicotiana benthamiana leaves.
Article in Plant cell reports, 2019. 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
key messageAgrobacterium-mediated transient overexpression of E2Fb triggers new cell divisions in pavement cells of Nicotiana benthamiana leaves. Transient transformation in Nicotiana benthamiana enables the study of multiple biological processes in a simple and fast manner. Here, we describe that, upon A. tumefaciens-mediated transient overexpression of the cell cycle regulator E2Fb from either Arabidopsis thaliana or N. benthamiana, cell divisions occur in epidermal pavement cells in N. benthamiana leaves, following a sequence of events that encompasses the nucleus taking a central position and being surrounded by chloroplasts, nuclear division, and formation of a new wall that divides the initial cell in two. Our results indicate that transient expression in N. benthamiana can be used to study cell division in plants, from DNA replication to cell wall formation, in a simple, controlled, and rapid manner.
