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

With the aim of developing new techniques for physical and functional genome analysis, we have introduced the Cre-lox site-specific recombination system into the cultivated tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum). Local transposition of a Ds(lox) transposable element from a T-DNA(lox) on the long arm of chromosome 6 was used to position pairs of lox sites on different closely linked loci. In vitro Cre-lox recombination between chromosomal lox sites and synthetic lox oligonucleotides cleaved the 750 Mb tomato genome with 34 bp specificity to release unique 65 kb and 130 kb fragments of chromosome 6. Parallel in vitro experiments on Saccharomyces cerevisiae chromosomes show the efficiency of cleavage to be 50% per chromosomal lox site at maximum. By expressing the Cre recombinase in tomato under control of a constitutive CaMV 35S promoter, efficient and specific somatic and germinal in planta inversion of the 130 kb fragment is demonstrated. The combined use of in vitro and in vivo recombination on genetically mapped lox sites will provide new possibilities for long range restriction mapping and in vivo manipulation of selected tomato genome segments.
