Development of a qualitative detection method for the pSIM1278 construct in genetically modified potato using real-time PCR.
Article in GM crops & food, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Innate® genetically modified (GM) potato events have been developed to confer desirable traits such as black spot resistance and decreased acrylamide levels. The first-generation event E12 and second-generation events X17, Y9, and Z6, which possess additional traits, including further sugar reduction and late blight resistance, have been approved for food use in several countries. Considering that these GM potatoes may be in commerce, they need to be appropriately monitored and labeled to ensure consumers' right to informed choice. All of these events share the genetic construct pSIM1278. We developed a real-time PCR method targeting pSIM1278 that enables simultaneous screening of all Innate® GM potato events in a single reaction. The assay's sensitivity and specificity were evaluated, and its practical utility was demonstrated through a distribution survey of imported potato products in Japan. This method provides a useful tool for monitoring GM potatoes containing the pSIM1278 sequence in foods.
