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

Detection of QTL in multiple segregating families possesses many advantages over the classical QTL mapping in biparental populations. It has thus become increasingly popular, and different biometrical approaches are available to analyze such data sets. We empirically compared an approach based on linkage mapping methodology with an association mapping approach. To this end, we used a large population of 788 elite maize lines derived from six biparental families genotyped with 857 SNP markers. In addition, we constructed genetic maps with reduced marker densities to assess the dependency of the performance of both mapping approaches on the marker density. We used cross-validation and resample model averaging and found that while association mapping performed better under high marker densities, this was reversed under low marker densities. In addition to main effect QTL, we also detected epistatic interactions. Our results suggest that both approaches will profit from a further increase in marker density and that a cross-validation should be applied irrespective of the biometrical approach.
