A comprehensive model of tomato fruit ripening regulation by the transcription factors NOR-like1, NAC-NOR, and MADS-RIN.

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
Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit ripening involves climacteric ethylene production, lycopene accumulation, texture softening, and flavor enhancement, a highly coordinated process accompanied by profound gene expression changes. To construct a comprehensive model of ripening regulation, we studied the effects on ripening phenotypes and underlying gene expression changes in combinations of knockout alleles of NON-RIPENING-like1 (NL1), NON-RIPENING (NAC-NOR, NOR), and RIPENING INHIBITOR (MADS-RIN). Thus, we demonstrated that the products of the putative paralogous transcription factor genes NL1 and NOR together orchestrate ripening initiation and progression through ethylene production. NL1, or the ethylene production that it induces, together with NOR, stimulates the gene expression of transcription factor MADS-RIN, which then becomes the major driver of all ripening processes studied here. NOR and, particularly, NL1 have relatively minor but discernable and clearly different quantitative contributions to the ripening progression after initiation. Thus, the comprehensive model establishes a hierarchy of gene expression events regulating the start and progression of fruit ripening.
