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

Prolonged low temperature phases and short-term cold spells often occur in spring during the crucial stages of early maize (Zea mays L.) development. The effect of low temperature-induced growth retardation at the seedling stage on final yield is poorly studied. Therefore, the aim was to identify genomic regions associated with morpho-physiological traits at flowering and harvest stage and their relationship to previously identified quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for photosynthesis and morpho-physiological traits from the same plants at seedling stage. Flowering time, plant height and shoot biomass components at harvest were measured in a dent mapping population for cold tolerance studies, which was sown in the Swiss Midlands in early and late spring in two consecutive years. Early-sown plants exhibited chilling stress during seedling stage, whereas late-sown plants grew under favorable conditions. Significant QTLs, which were stable across environments, were found for plant height and for the time of flowering. The QTLs for flowering were frequently co-localized with QTLs for plant height or ear dry weight. The comparison with QTLs detected at seedling stage revealed only few common QTLs. A pleiotropic effect was found on chromosome 3 which revealed that a good photosynthetic performance of the seedling under warm conditions had a beneficial effect on plant height and partially on biomass at harvest. However, a high chilling tolerance of the seedling seemingly had an insignificant or small negative effect on the yield.
