Construction and Characterization of a Full-Length Infectious cDNA Clone of a Strain of Watermelon Mosaic Virus Isolated from Melon.

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
Watermelon mosaic virus (WMV), a member of the genus Potyvirus, causes serious economic losses in cucurbit crops. For molecular biological studies of viruses, it is necessary to construct an infectious clone that can facilitate gene functional analysis. In this study, we constructed an infectious cDNA clone of WMV genomic RNA by Gibson assembly and evaluated its virulence and symptoms on a variety of host plants. A WMV isolate (WMV-IS-me2) collected from melon in Iksan, Jeonbuk Province, Korea in 2015 caused mosaic symptoms on leaves. Four overlapping PCR fragments of the full-length genome of this isolate and the pJL89 binary vector with overhanging ends of 40 bp were amplified by reverse transcription PCR and joined in a single isothermal reaction. The complete nucleotide sequence of the infectious cDNA clone of WMV was determined and the recombinant vector was transformed into Agrobacterium tumefaciens GV3101. Following agro-infiltration, an infectious clone (pWMV-M, KACC95145P) systemically induced mosaic symptoms on watermelon (Citrullus lanatus), zucchini (Cucurbita pepo), melon (Cucumis melo), and Nicotiana benthamiana plants. This infectious clone may be useful for screening cucurbit varieties resistant to WMV, as well as for studying viral gene function.
