Identification of an epicuticular wax crystal deficiency gene
Article in Frontiers in plant science, 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
Introduction: The cuticle wax covering the plant surface is a whitish hydrophobic protective barrier in Chinese cabbage, and the epicuticular wax crystal deficiency normally has higher commodity value for a tender texture and glossy appearance. Herein, two allelic epicuticular wax crystal deficiency mutants, Methods: The cuticle wax morphology was observed by Cryo-scanning electron microscopy (Cryo-SEM) and the composition of wax was determined by GC-MS. The candidate mutant gene was found by MutMap and validated by KASP. The function of candidate gene was verified by allelic variation. Results: The mutants had fewer wax crystals and lower leaf primary alcohol and ester content. Genetic analysis revealed that the epicuticular wax crystal deficiency phenotype was controlled by a recessive nuclear gene, named Brwdm1. MutMap and KASP analyses indicated that Discussion: These results indicated that
