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

Seed number is a key character/trait tightly related to the plant fitness/evolution and crop domestication/improvement. The seed number per silique (SNPS) shows a huge variation from several to more than 30, however the underlying regulatory mechanisms are poorly known, which has hindered its improvement. To answer this question, several representative lines with extreme SNPS were previously subjected to systematic genetic and cytological analyses. The results showed that the natural variation of seed number per silique is mainly controlled by maternal and embryonic genotype, which are co-determined by ovule number per ovary, fertile ovule ratio, ovule fertilization rate, and fertilized ovule development rate. More importantly, we also mapped two repeatable quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for SNPS using the F
