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

Genetic engineering in plants serves as a crucial method for enhancing crop quality, yield, and climate resilience through the manipulation of genetic circuits. A novel genetic transformation approach utilizing nanocarriers as a sound plant genetic engineering technique enables the delivery of DNAs or RNAs into the plant cells. Significant advances have recently been made on the nanotechnology-based delivery of nucleic acids in plants. In this review, several nanoparticle-mediated DNA and RNA delivery systems are discussed respectively, involving latest progresses and drawbacks of these approaches used in plant genetic engineering. We also underscores the current challenges that must be addressed in the implementation of nanoparticles-based strategies for plant gene delivery. Furthermore and more importantly, plant-derived exosome-like nanoparticles that facilitate nucleic acids transfer between organisms was initially proposed as a novel and promising nanodelivery platform for the CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing toolkit in plants. We believe that this review will be beneficial for an effective exploration of nucleic acid nanodelivery to aid the plant genetic engineering in modern agriculture.
