The trpA gene on the plastid genome of Cyanidium caldarium strain RK-1.
Article in Current genetics, 1994. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The trpA gene (for the alpha subunit of tryptophan synthase) was found on the plastid genome of the "primitive" unicellular red alga Cyanidium caldarium strain RK-1. This is the first example of an actively-transcribed gene for tryptophan synthase encoded on a plastid genome. In contrast to trpA, trpB (the gene for the beta subunit of tryptophan synthase) was encoded in the cell nucleus. Considering the primitive characteristics of C. caldarium, trpB must have been lost from the plastid genome before trpA.
