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

Diversity assessment of 94 groundnut accessions from Togo and Senegal, using agro-morphological and SNP markers, revealed high variability for many quantitative traits such as late leaf spot (LLS) incidence, number of pods per plant and yield per plant. For qualitative traits, the Simpson Index showed high diversity for primary seed colour (0.75), stem pigmentation (0.60), and Growth habit (0.59). Principal component analysis underscored quantitative traits such as hundred seed weight, days to maturity, and LLS incidence, as the main traits contributing to the divergence. Correlation and path coefficient analysis showed that the number of pods per plant was the main yield-related trait positively affecting yield (r = 0.95, PC = 0.84; p = 0.01). Overall, 990 SNP markers revealed moderate genetic variability in the genotypes and the percentage of heterozygous genotypes varied from 0 to 50% for all loci. Analysis of molecular variance revealed that only 1.1% of the total molecular variance accounted for geographical contribution to the diversity. Co-analysis of phenotypic and SNP data delineated three clusters harbouring useful alleles and interesting phenotypic features such as LLS resistance, large number of pods per plant and early maturity indicating that differences observed at the phenotypic level are underlined by genotypic differences. The phenotypic and genotypic diversity observed could be exploited for the identification of parents with preferred traits for use in the breeding program. However, the low population structure highlights the necessity to improve groundnut diversity in Togo through introduction from various sources.
