A point mutation in the gene encoding the Rubisco large subunit interferes with holoenzyme assembly.
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 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
Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco), a key enzyme of photosynthetic CO2 fixation, is composed of 8 large and 8 small subunits. The Rubisco-deficient Nicotiana tabacum mutant Sp25 is able to synthesize the peptides for both subunits but does not contain any active holoenzyme. The phenotype is maternally inherited and thus caused by a mutation in the chloroplast genome, which also encodes the Rubisco large subunit. A comparison of the nucleotide sequences of the large subunit gene of the Sp25 mutant with that of the wild-type tobacco revealed a single nucleotide change in the Sp25 mutant. This resulted in an amino acid substitution at Gly-322, which was replaced by serine.
