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

Heterosis has been widely utilized in agriculture and is important for world food safety. Many genetic models have been proposed as mechanisms underlying heterosis during the past century, yet more evidence is needed to support such models. To investigate heterosis in two-line hybrid rice, we generated a partial diallel crossing scheme, which consisted of approximately 500 F1 hybrids derived from 14 male sterile lines and 39 restorer lines. In this population, increased panicle number played the most important role in yield heterosis of hybrid rice. Genome-wide association studies identified many QTLs related to the yield traits of F1 hybrids, better paternal heterosis and special combining ability. Relevant genes, including Hd3a, qGL3, OsmiR156h, and LAX2, were identified as candidates within these QTLs. Nearly forty percent of the QTLs had only two genotypes in the F1 hybrids, mainly because the maternal lines were under intense selective pressure. Further analysis found male sterile lines and restorer lines made different superior allele contributions to F1 hybrids, and their contributions varied among different traits. These results extend our understanding of the molecular basis of heterosis in two-line hybrid rice.
