Alternative carbon sources for the production of plant cellular agriculture: a case study on acetate.
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 2 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
Plant cellular agriculture aims to disrupt the way plant derived products are produced. Plant cell cultures are typically grown with sucrose as the primary carbon and energy source, but alternative carbon sources may have advantages over sucrose including less strain on food systems, lower costs, and more sustainable sourcing. Here we review carbon and energy sources that may serve as alternatives to sucrose in the cultivation of plant cell cultures. We identified acetate as a promising candidate and took the first steps to evaluate its potential for use in growing tobacco plant cell cultures. When added to media containing sucrose, acetate concentrations above 8 mM completely inhibit growth. Lower concentrations of acetate (2-4 mM) can support an increase in dry weight without sucrose but do not provide enough energy for substantial growth.
