DNA barcoding of some medicinally important plant species of Lamiaceae family in India.
Article in Molecular biology reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Several species of the Lamiaceae family are the primary source of bioactive aromatic oils and secondary metabolites, having broader applications in the cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, food, confectionery and liquor industries. Due to the scarcity of raw materials and high costs of this family's economically vital species, its products often adulterated to cater to the market's high demand. The present study provides a DNA based approach for identifying different species of this family. Henceforth, the performance of three already proposed barcode loci (matK, trnH-psbA and trnL) was examined for their PCR amplification and species recognition efficacy on various Lamiaceae species and cultivars using three different approaches such as pairwise genetic distance method, BLASTn and phylogenetic tree based on maximum likelihood (ML) analysis. Results illustrate that among all the DNA barcoding loci, matK locus can accurately and efficiently distinguish all the studied species followed by trnH-psbA and trnL. Present investigation may help diminish the illegal trade and events of adulteration of medicinally important plants species in genus Mentha, Ocimum and Plectranthus. This investigation will also help fulfil the scarcity of sequences of barcode loci of these species in the NCBI database. Apart from providing a molecular level reference for identifying processed herbal products, this technique also offers a convenient method for species identification and germplasm conservation of the Lamiaceae family.
