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

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the third most important food legume crop. Seed size is the most economically important trait for chickpea. To understand the genetic regulation of seed size in chickpea, the present study established a three-way association of CT repeat length variation of a simple sequence repeat (SSR) in myo-inositol monophosphatase gene (CaIMP) with seed weight and phytic acid content by large scale validation and genotyping in a set of genetically diverse germplasm accessions and two reciprocal intra-specific mapping populations. Germplasms and mapping individuals with CT repeat-length expansion in the 5' untranslated region of CaIMP exhibited a pronounced increase in CaIMP protein level, enzymatic activity, seed-phytate content and seed weight. A chickpea transient expression system demonstrated this repeat-length variation influenced the translation of CaIMP mRNA, apparently by facilitating translation initiation. Our analyses proposed that the SSR marker derived from 5' UTR of a CaIMP gene is a promising candidate for selection of seed size/weight for agronomic trait improvement of chickpea.
