Precise control of chromatin loop extrusion enhances sustainable green revolution yield in rice.
Article in Nature genetics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Continuous and excessive use of inorganic fertilizers underlies current global crop production; therefore, reducing fertilizer use while increasing crop productivity is critical for ensuring agricultural sustainability and food security. Here we show that the natural variant of RCN2, a rice TERMINAL FLOWER 1/CENTRORADIALIS homolog, enhances photosynthesis, nitrogen assimilation and grain yield by restricting chromatin loop extrusion. RCN2 competitively inhibits the interaction between growth-repressing DELLA proteins and SQUAMOSA PROMOTER BINDING PROTEIN-LIKE transcription factors, breaking the green revolution trade-off between plant growth and metabolism of carbon and nitrogen. We demonstrate that targeting CCCTC-containing insulator elements at the RCN2 locus confers not only decoupling tillering and panicle branching without affecting beneficial semi-dwarfism, but also improves source-to-sink carbon allocation and nitrogen-use efficiency, consequently increasing harvest index and rice yield at low nitrogen fertilization levels. Precise modulation of loop extrusion thus enables new breeding strategies to reduce nitrogen fertilizer use in high-yield cereal crops.
