Heterotic loci identified for maize kernel traits in two chromosome segment substitution line test populations.
Article in Scientific reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
Heterosis has been widely used to increase grain quality and yield, but its genetic mechanism remains unclear. In this study, the genetic basis of heterosis for four maize kernel traits was examined in two test populations constructed using a set of 184 chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) and two inbred lines (Zheng58 and Xun9058) in two environments. 63 and 57 different heterotic loci (HL) were identified for four kernel traits in the CSSLs × Zheng58 and CSSLs × Xun9058 populations, respectively. Of these, nine HL and six HL were identified for four kernel traits in the CSSLs × Zheng58 and CSSLs × Xun9058 populations, at the two locations simultaneously. Comparative analysis of the HL for the four kernel traits identified only 21 HL in the two test populations simultaneously. These results showed that most HL for the four kernel traits differed between the two test populations. The common HL were important loci from the Reid × Tangsipingtou heterotic model, and could be used to predict hybrid performance in maize breeding.
