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

Libraries of near-isogenic lines (NILs) are a powerful plant genetic resource to map quantitative trait loci (QTL). Nevertheless, QTL mapping with NILs is mostly restricted to genetic main effects. Here we propose a two-step procedure to map additive-by-additive digenic epistasis with NILs. In the first step, a generation means analysis of parents, their F(1) hybrid, and one-segment NILs and their triple testcross (TTC) progenies is used to identify in a one-dimensional scan loci exhibiting QTL-by-background interactions. In a second step, one-segment NILs with significant additive-by-additive background interactions are used to produce particular two-segment NILs to test for digenic epistatic interactions between these segments. We evaluated our approach by analyzing a random subset of a genomewide Arabidopsis thaliana NIL library for growth-related traits. The results of our experimental study illustrated the potential of the presented two-step procedure to map additive-by-additive digenic epistasis with NILs. Furthermore, our findings suggested that additive main effects as well as additive-by-additive digenic epistasis strongly influence the genetic architecture underlying growth-related traits of A. thaliana.
