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

The high toxicity of cadmium (Cd) and its ready uptake by plants has become a major agricultural problem. To investigate the genetic architecture and genetic regulation of Cd tolerance in barley, we conducted quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis in the phenotypically polymorphic Oregon Wolfe Barley (OWB) mapping population, derived from a cross between Rec and Dom parental genotypes. Through evaluating the Cd tolerance of 87 available doubled haploid lines of the OWB mapping population at the seedling stage, one minor and one major QTL were detected on chromosomes 2H and 6H, respectively. For chlorosis and necrosis traits, the major QTL explained 47.24% and 38.59% of the phenotypic variance, respectively. RNA-Seq analysis of the parental seedlings under Cd treatment revealed 542 differentially expressed genes between Cd-tolerant Rec and Cd-susceptible Dom genotypes. By analyzing sequence variations in transcribed sequences of the parental genotypes, 155,654 SNPs and 1,525 InDels were identified between the two contrasting genotypes and may contribute to Cd tolerance. Finally, by integrating the data from the identified QTLs and RNA-Seq analysis, 16 Cd tolerance-related candidate genes were detected, nine of which were metal ion transporters. These results provide promising candidate genes for further gene cloning and improving Cd tolerance in barley.
