Confocal Microscopy Analysis of Protein Sorting to Plasmodesmata in Nicotiana benthamiana.
Article in Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Plasmodesmata are membranous nanopores that connect the cytoplasm of adjacent plant cells and enable the cell-to-cell trafficking of nutrients, macromolecules, as well as invading viruses. Plasmodesmata play fundamental roles in the regulation of intercellular communication, contributing to plant development, environmental responses, and interactions with viral pathogens. Discovering plasmodesmal localization of plant or viral proteins could provide useful functional information about the protein and is important for understanding the mechanisms of plant-virus interactions. To facilitate these studies, we describe a protocol for confocal microscopy-based analysis of different plasmodesmal targeting proteins to select the best plasmodesmal marker for studying the virus-plasmodesmata interactions or plasmodesmal transport. Specifically, the analyses of these events are illustrated using the cell-to-cell movement protein (MP) of the Turnip vein-clearing virus (TVCV), the Arabidopsis Plasmodesmata-Localized Protein 5 (PDLP5) and Plasmodesmata Callose-Binding Protein 1 (PDCB1). The protein plasmodesmal localization data are analyzed in parallel with the global visualization of plasmodesmata using aniline blue staining of the sampled tissues. These approaches can be easily adapted to analyze the plasmodesmal localization of any cellular or pathogen proteins in planta.
