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

Many projects have identified candidate genes for resistance to aflatoxin accumulation or

Indexed as

AflatoxinsAspergillus flavusGenes, PlantDisease ResistanceHost-Pathogen InteractionsPlant DiseasesZea maysAflatoxinsaflatoxinAspergillus flavuscandidate genesKey ContributionmaizeQuantitative trait loci associated with resistance to Aspergillus flavus and/or aflatoxin production can be quite large and are comprised of thousands of genes, thus making it difficult to determine which one(s) may be most relevant to pursue in breeding for improved resistance. The authors examined maize mapping populations for association of polymorphisms within 195 candidate genes that may be involved in resistance. Many of the identified candidates genes offer clues to key metabolic and/or enzymatic pathways that may have a significant effect on reducing fungal infection and/or aflatoxin accumulation.Zea mays L.
