Non-coding RNA polymerases that silence transposable elements and reprogram gene expression in plants.
Review in Transcription. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 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
Multisubunit RNA polymerase (Pol) complexes are the core machinery for gene expression in eukaryotes. The enzymes Pol I, Pol II and Pol III transcribe distinct subsets of nuclear genes. This family of nuclear RNA polymerases expanded in terrestrial plants by the duplication of Pol II subunit genes. Two Pol II-related enzymes, Pol IV and Pol V, are highly specialized in the production of regulatory, non-coding RNAs. Pol IV and Pol V are the central players of RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM), an RNA interference pathway that represses transposable elements (TEs) and selected genes. Genetic and biochemical analyses of Pol IV/V subunits are now revealing how these enzymes evolved from ancestral Pol II to sustain non-coding RNA biogenesis in silent chromatin. Intriguingly, Pol IV-RdDM regulates genes that influence flowering time, reproductive development, stress responses and plant-pathogen interactions. Pol IV target genes vary among closely related taxa, indicating that these regulatory circuits are often species-specific. Data from crops like maize, rice, tomato and
