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

High-precision genome editing tools, such as programmable nucleases, are poised to transform crop breeding and significantly impact fundamental plant research. Among these tools, the CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats)/Cas9 (CRISPR-associated 9) system is a programmable, RNA-guided nuclease that introduces targeted, site-specific double-stranded breaks in the target DNA loci. When these breaks are repaired, it often results in a frame-shift mutation via short insertion/deletion (indel), leading to gene knockout. Since its first successful use in plants, CRISPR/Cas9 has been widely adopted for targeting genes of agronomic and scientific importance in multiple crops, including rice, maize, wheat, and sorghum. These cereal crops ensure global food security, provide essential nutrition, and support economic stability. Additionally, such crops support biofuel production, livestock feed, and sustainable farming practices through crop rotation. This article outlines the strategies for implementing CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing in plants, including a step-by-step process of guide RNA target selection, oligonucleotide design, construct development, assembly, and analysis of genome edits. © 2025 The Author(s).
