Glutathione S-transferase: a candidate gene for berry color in muscadine grapes (Vitis rotundifolia).

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
Muscadine grapes (Vitis rotundifolia Michx.) are a specialty crop cultivated in the southern United States. Muscadines (2n = 40) belong to the Muscadinia subgenus of Vitis, while other cultivated grape species belong to the subgenus Euvitis (2n = 38). The muscadine berry color locus was mapped to a 0.8 Mbp region syntenic with chromosome 4 of Vitis vinifera. In this study, we identified glutathione S-transferase4 as a likely candidate gene for anthocyanin transport within the berry color locus. PCR and Kompetitive allele-specific PCR genotyping identified a single intragenic SNP (C/T) marker corresponding to a proline to leucine mutation within the muscadine glutathione S-transferase4 (VrGST4) that differentiated black (CC and CT) from bronze (TT) muscadines in 126 breeding selections, 76 cultivars, and 359 progeny from 3 mapping populations. Anthocyanin profiling on a subset of the progeny indicated a dominant VrGST4 action. VrGST4 was expressed in skins of both black and bronze muscadines at similar levels. While nonsynonymous polymorphisms between black and bronze muscadines were discovered in VrGSTF12, another Type I GST-coding gene in the muscadine color locus, this gene was ruled out as a possible candidate for berry color because RNA sequencing indicated it is not expressed in berry skins at véraison from black or bronze genotypes. These results suggest that the bronze phenotype in muscadines is regulated by a mechanism distinct from the MybA gene cluster responsible for berry color variation in Vitis vinifera.
