The Use of Flow Cytometry for Estimating Genome Sizes and DNA Ploidy Levels in Plants.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Flow cytometry has emerged as a uniquely flexible, accurate, and widely applicable technology for the analysis of plant cells. One of its most important applications centers on the measurement of nuclear DNA contents. This chapter describes the essential features of this measurement, outlining the overall methods and strategies, but going on to provide a wealth of technical details to ensure the most accurate and reproducible results. The chapter is aimed to be equally accessible to experienced plant cytometrists as well as those newly entering the field. Besides providing a step-by-step guide for estimating genome sizes and DNA-ploidy levels from fresh tissues, special attention is paid to the use of seeds and desiccated tissues for such purposes. Methodological aspects regarding field sampling, transport, and storage of plant material are also given in detail. Finally, troubleshooting information for the most common problems that may arise during the application of these methods is provided.
