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

Doubled haploid (DH) technologies accelerate maize inbred development. Recently, methods using CRISPR-Cas have created gene-edited maize DH populations, albeit with relatively low editing frequencies. Restoring fertility via haploid chromosome doubling remains a critically important production constraint. Thus, improved editing and chromosome doubling outcomes are needed. Here we obtained maternally derived diploid embryos in vivo by ectopically co-expressing Zea mays BABY BOOM and cyclin D-like gene products within unfertilized egg cells. When combined with gene editing, the in vivo method enables the production of mature seed with a maternally derived, gene-edited diploid embryo without requiring in vitro tissue culture methods nor the use of a chemical chromosome doubling agent. In summary, we report a novel approach for creating gene-edited maize DH populations that we expect can accelerate genetic gain in a scalable, cost-effective manner.
