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

Ascochyta blight (AB) caused by Ascochyta rabiei (teleomorph, Didymella rabiei) Pass. Lab. is an important fungal disease of chickpea worldwide. Only moderate sources of resistance are available within the cultivated species and we hypothesized that the available sources may carry different genes for resistance, which could be pyramided to improve field resistance to AB. Four divergent moderately resistant cultivars CDC Frontier, CDC Luna, CDC Corinne, and Amit were each crossed to a highly susceptible germplasm ICCV 96029. Parents, F(1) and F(2) generations were evaluated under controlled conditions for their reactions to AB. A total of 144 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were first mapped to eight linkage groups (LG) for the CDC Frontier x ICCV 96029 population. Then based on the evidence from this population, 76, 61, and 42 SSR markers were systematically chosen and mapped in CDC Luna, CDC Corinne, and Amit populations, respectively. Frequency distributions of the AB rating in the F(2) generation varied among the four populations. Composite interval mapping revealed five QTLs (QTL1-5), one on each of LG 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8, respectively, distributed across different sources, controlling resistance to AB. CDC Frontier contained QTL2, 3, and 4 that simultaneously accounted for 56% of phenotypic variations. CDC Luna contained QTL 1 and 3. CDC Corinne contained QTL 3 and 5, while only QTL 2 was identified in Amit. Altogether these QTL explained 48, 38, and 14% of the estimated phenotypic variations in CDC Luna, CDC Corinne, and Amit populations, respectively. The results suggested that these QTLs could be combined into a single genotype to enhance field resistance to AB.
