Association mapping for root architectural traits in durum wheat seedlings as related to agronomic performance.

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.
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
Association mapping provides useful insights on the genetic architecture of quantitative traits across a large number of unrelated genotypes, which in turn allows an informed choice of the lines to be crossed for a more accurate characterization of major QTLs in a biparental genetic background. In this study, seedlings of 183 durum wheat elite accessions were evaluated in order to identify QTLs for root system architecture (RSA). The QTLs identified were compared with QTLs detected for grain yield and its component traits, plant height and peduncle length measured in a previous study where the same accessions were evaluated in 15 field trials with a broad range of soil moisture availability and productivity (Maccaferri et al. in J Exp Bot 62:409-438, 2011). The following RSA features were investigated in seedlings at the four-leaf stage: seminal root angle, primary root length, total root length, average root length, root number and shoot length. Highly significant differences among accessions were detected for all traits. The highest repeatability (
