Exploiting genetic variation in nitrogen use efficiency for cereal crop improvement.
Review in Current opinion in plant biology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 53 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
Cereals are the most important sources of calories and nutrition for the human population, and are an essential animal feed. Food security depends on adequate production and demands are predicted to rise as the global population rises. The need for increased yields will have to be coupled to the efficient use of resources including fertilisers such as nitrogen to underpin the sustainability of food production. Although optimally performing crops with high yields require a balanced mineral nutrition, nitrogen fundamentally drives growth and yield as well as requirements for other nutrients. It is estimated that globally only 33% of applied nitrogen fertiliser is recovered in the harvested grain, indicative of a huge waste of resource and potential major pollutant and is thus a major target for crop improvement. Both agronomy and breeding will contribute to improved nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) and an important component of the latter is harnessing germplasm variation. This review will consider the key traits involved in NUE, the potential to exploit genetic variation for these specific traits, and the approaches to be utilised.
