A reverse transcriptase activity in potato mitochondria.
Article in Plant molecular biology, 1996. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
A reverse transcriptase activity has been detected in potato mitochondria using special RNAs as templates: a bacterial RNA coding for neomycin phosphotransferase (neo pa RNA) and a Neurospora crassa mitochondrial RNA (184 nt RNA). Surprisingly, no exogenous primer addition was required. These RNA templates share a primary and secondary structure similar to the T psi CG loop of tRNAs that could constitute the recognition site for the enzyme. Reverse transcriptase activity was inhibited by ddTTP, ethidium bromide and aphidicolin, while potato mitochondrial DNA polymerase was not inhibited by aphidicolin indicating that these activities correspond to distinct enzymes. A conserved sequence of reverse transcriptases was detected in potato mitochondrial DNA suggesting that this enzyme could be mitochondrially encoded.
