The Role of Transposable Elements in Pongamia Unigenes and Protein Diversity.

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
Pongamia pinnata (also called Millettia pinnata), a non-edible oil yielding tree, is well known for its multipurpose benefits and acts as a potential source for medicine and biodiesel preparation. Due to increase in demand for cultivation, understanding of genetic diversity is an important parameter for further breeding and cultivation programme. Transposable elements (TEs) are a major component of plant genome but still, their evolutionary significance in Pongamia remains unexplored. In view to understand the role of TEs in genome diversity, Pongamia unigenes were screened for the presence of TE cassettes. Our analysis showed the presence of all categories of TE cassettes in unigenes with major contribution of long terminal repeat-retrotransposons towards unigene diversity. Interestingly, the insertion of some TEs was also observed in both organellar genomes. The study of insertion of TEs in coding sequence is of great interest as they may be responsible for protein diversity thereby influencing the phenotype. The present investigation confirms the exaptation phenomenon in pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC) gene where the entire exon sequence was derived from Ty3-gypsy like retrotransposon. The study of PDC protein revealed the translation of gypsy element into protein. Furthermore, the phylogenetic study confirmed the diversity in PDC gene due to insertion of the gypsy element, where the PDC genes with and without gypsy insertion were clustered separately.
