Engineering drought tolerance in plants through CRISPR/Cas genome editing.
Review in 3 Biotech, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 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
Drought stress is primarily responsible for heavy yield losses and productivity in major crops and possesses the greatest threat to the global food security. While conventional and molecular breeding approaches along with genetic engineering techniques have been instrumental in developing drought-tolerant crop varieties, these methods are cumbersome, time consuming and the genetically modified varieties are not widely accepted due to regulatory concerns. Plant breeders are now increasingly centring towards the recently available genome-editing tools for improvement of agriculturally important traits. The advent of multiple sequence-specific nucleases has facilitated precise gene modification towards development of novel climate ready crop variants. Amongst the available genome-editing platforms, the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat-Cas (CRISPR/Cas) system has emerged as a revolutionary tool for its simplicity, adaptability, flexibility and wide applicability. In this review, we focus on understanding the molecular mechanism of drought response in plants and the application of CRISPR/Cas genome-editing system towards improved tolerance to drought stress.
