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

backgroundThe established genetic transformation system is essential for gene function research and genetic improvement of horticultural crops. The lack of efficient genetic transformation systems has long been a significant bottleneck for perennial fruit trees such as peach.

resultsIn this study, we provided an Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated transformation system by using stem segments of the 'Hanlumi' cultivar (Prunus persica L. Batsch). Through the optimization of explants, selection of the appropriate bacterial strain (MSU440), and determination of the infection concentration (OD

conclusionsThe established transformation systems provide effective means for gene function validation and molecular breeding in peach, which have significant implications for the improvement of flavor quality.
