Editing efficiencies with Cas9 orthologs, Cas12a endonucleases, and temperature in rice.
Article in Frontiers in genome editing, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The advent of CRISPR-Cas technology has made it the genome editing tool of choice in all kingdoms of life, including plants, which can have large, highly duplicated genomes. As a result, finding adequate target sequences that meet the specificities of a given Cas nuclease on any gene of interest remains challenging in many cases. To assess target site flexibility, we tested five different Cas9/Cas12a endonucleases (SpCas9, SaCas9, St1Cas9, Mb3Cas12a, and AsCas12a) in embryogenic rice calli from Taipei 309 at 37°C (optimal temperature for most Cas9/Cas12a proteins) and 27°C (optimal temperature for tissue culture) and measured their editing rates under regular tissue culture conditions using Illumina sequencing. StCas9 and AsCas12 were not functional as tested, regardless of the temperature used. SpCas9 was the most efficient endonuclease at either temperature, regardless of whether monoallelic or biallelic edits were considered. Mb3Cas12a at 37°C was the next most efficient endonuclease. Monoallelic edits prevailed for both SaCas9 and Mb3Cas12a at 27°C, but biallelic edits prevailed at 37°C. Overall, the use of other Cas9 orthologs, the use of Cas12a endonucleases, and the optimal temperature can expand the range of targetable sequences.
