1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

In angiosperms, fertilization and embryogenesis occur in the embryo sac, which is deeply embedded in ovular tissue. In vitro fertilization (IVF) systems using isolated gametes have been utilized to dissect postfertilization events in angiosperms, such as egg activation, zygotic development, and early embryogenesis. In addition, using IVF systems, interspecific zygotes and polyploid zygotes have been artificially produced, and their developmental profiles/mechanisms have been analyzed. Taken together, the IVF system can be considered a powerful technique for investigating the fertilization-induced developmental sequences in zygotes and generating new cultivars with desirable characteristics. Here, we describe the procedures for the isolation of rice gametes, electrofusion of gametes, and the culture of the produced zygotes and embryo.
