RNA silencing technology: A boon for crop improvement.
Review in Journal of biosciences, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful tool for gene silencing in different organisms, including plants. It is being used in functional genomics to decipher the function of genes. This technology has also witnessed a variety of potential applications in agriculture for crop improvement, including the development of crops for resistance against biotic (weeds, pathogens, insect pests and nematode parasites) and abiotic stresses (drought, high and low temperature, etc.), nutritional quality improvement, healthier oils, delayed ripening, male sterility, modification of flowering time and flower colour, alteration of plant architecture, enhancement of secondary products, and removal of allergens and toxins. RNAi has several advantages over traditional transgenic approaches as genetically modified RNAi plants do not contain transgene protein, however the risk assessment of these plants should be examined to rule out any off-target effects.
