Improved growth in a field trial of transgenic hybrid poplar overexpressing glutamine synthetase.
Article in The New phytologist, 2004. 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
• In the present work the performance of transgenic poplars expressing a pine glutamine synthetase (GS) transgene was studied in natural conditions. • A field study of eight independent transgenic lines and control plants was carried out for 3 yr in the province of Granada (Spain). • Transgenic poplars reached average heights that were 21, 36 and 41% greater than control plants after the first, second and third year of growth, respectively. Transgene expression affected plant features with time resulting in increased protein, total GS and ferredoxin-dependent glutamate synthase (Fd-GOGAT) in leaves. However, neither differences in the large subunit of Rubisco (LSU) abundance nor water content were detected between lines. Furthermore, no significant differences were found in total polysaccharide and lignin content in tree trunks. • The analyses of stem diameter, and protein contents in the bark suggest that higher levels of nitrogen reserves accumulated in the stem of transgenics. Our results suggest that modification of GS1 expression may be a useful strategy to complement traditional tree breeding in short rotation plantations.
