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

Epistasis is defined as interactions between alleles of two or more genetic loci. Detection of epistatic interactions is the key to understand the genetic architecture and gene networks underlying complex traits. Here, we examined the extent of epistasis for seven quantitative traits with an association mapping approach in a large population of elite sugar beet lines. We found that correction for population stratification is required and that in terms of reducing the false-positive rate the mixed model approach including the kinship matrix performed best. In genome-wide scans, we detected both main effects and epistatic QTL. For physiological traits, the detected digenic and higher-order epistasis explained a considerable proportion of the genotypic variance. We illustrate that the identified epistatic interactions define comprehensive genetic networks, which may serve as starting points towards a systems-oriented approach to understand the regulation of complex traits.
