Mutagenesis Approaches and Their Role in Crop Improvement.
Article in Plants (Basel, Switzerland), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Induced mutagenesis is one of the most efficient tools that has been utilized extensively to create genetic variation as well as for identification of key regulatory genes for economically important traits toward the crop improvement. Mutations can be induced by several techniques such as physical, chemical, and insertional mutagen treatments; however, these methods are not preferred because of cost and tedious process. Nonetheless, with the advancements in next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques, millions of mutations can be detected in a very short period of time and, therefore, considered as convenient and cost efficient. Furthermore, induced mutagenesis coupled with whole-genome sequencing has provided a robust platform for forward and reverse genetic applications. Moreover, the availability of whole-genome sequence information for large number of crops has enabled target-specific genome editing techniques as a preferable method to engineer desired mutations. The available genome editing approaches such as ZFNs (Zinc Finger Nucleases), transcription activator like effector nucleases (TALENS), and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated9 (Cas9) endonuclease have been utilized to perform site-specific mutations in several plant species. In particular, the CRISPR/Cas9 has transformed the genome editing because of its simplicity and robustness, therefore, have been utilized to enhance biotic and abiotic stress resistance.
