1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

MINORg is an offline gRNA design tool that generates the smallest possible combination of gRNA capable of covering all desired targets in multiple non-reference genomes. As interest in pangenomic research grows, so does the workload required for large screens in multiple individuals. MINORg aims to lessen this workload by capitalising on sequence homology to favour multi-target gRNA while simultaneously screening multiple genetic backgrounds in order to generate reusable gRNA panels. We demonstrated the practical application of MINORg by knocking out 11 homologous genes tandemly arrayed in a multi-gene cluster in two Arabidopsis thaliana lineages using three gRNA output by MINORg. We also described a new PCR-free modular cloning system for multiplexing gRNA, and used it to knockout three tandemly arrayed genes in another multi-gene cluster with gRNA designed by MINORg.
