Identification and assessment of alleles in the promoter of the Cyc-B gene that modulate levels of β-carotene in ripe tomato fruit.
Article in The plant genome, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Novel diversity may be mined from databases and de novo sequencing, but functional characterization remains a limiting step to identifying new alleles. Classical breeding approaches augmented by marker-assisted selection offer a means to rapidly assess the function of new variation in coding or regulatory regions to modulate traits. We used the Cyc-B gene (B) of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) for a proof of concept because of its role in the production of β-carotene, a provitamin A carotenoid with importance to human nutrition. We measured carotenoid content in vintage and contemporary varieties and the profiles had a range of β-carotene from 0.2 to 4.06 mg 100 g
