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

backgroundThe nutritional value of soybean oil is largely influenced by the proportions of unsaturated fatty acids (FAs), including oleic acid (OA, 18:1), linoleic acid (LLA, 18:2), and linolenic acid (LNA, 18:3). Genome-wide association (GWAS) studies along with gene expression studies in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] were leveraged to dissect the genetics of unsaturated FAs.

resultsA association panel of 194 diverse soybean accessions were phenotyped in 2013, 2014 and 2015 to identify Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with OA, LLA, and LNA content, and determine putative candidate genes responsible for regulating unsaturated FAs composition. 149 SNPs that represented 73 genomic regions were found to be associated with the unsaturated FA contents in soybean seeds according to the results of GWAS. Twelve novel genes were predicted to be involved in unsaturated FA synthesis in soybean. The relationship between expression pattern of the candidate genes and the accumulation of unsaturated FAs revealed that multiple genes might be involved in unsaturated FAs regulation simultaneously but work in very different ways: Glyma.07G046200 and Glyma.20G245500 promote the OA accumulation in soybean seed in all the tested accessions; Glyma.13G68600 and Glyma.16G200200 promote the OA accumulation only in high OA germplasms; Glyma.07G151300 promotes OA accumulation in higher OA germplasms and suppresses that in lower OA germplasms; Glyma.16G003500 has the effect of increasing LLA accumulation in higher LA germplasms; Glyma.07G254500 suppresses the accumulation of LNA in lower OA germplasms; Glyma.14G194300 might be involved in the accumulation of LNA content in lower LNA germplasms.

conclusionsThe beneficial alleles and candidate genes identified might be valuable for improving marker-assisted breeding efficiency and exploring the molecular mechanisms underlying unsaturated fatty acid of soybean.
