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

Straw biomass and stability are crucial for stable yields. Moreover, straw harbors the potential to serve as a valuable raw material for bio-economic processes. The peduncle is the top part of the last shoot internode and carries the spike. This study investigates the genetic control of barley peduncle morphology. Therefore, 1411 BC1S3 lines of the nested association mapping (NAM) population "Halle Exotic Barley 25" (HEB-25), generated by crossing the spring barley elite cultivar Barke with an assortment of 25 exotic barley accessions, were used. Applying 50k Illumina Infinium iSelect SNP genotyping yielded new insights and a better understanding of the quantitative trait loci (QTL) involved in controlling the peduncle diameter traits, we found the total thickness of peduncle tissues and the area of the peduncle cross-section. We identified three major QTL regions on chromosomes 2H and 3H mainly impacting the traits. Remarkably, the exotic allele at the QTL on chromosome 3H improved all three traits investigated in this work. Introgressing this QTL in elite cultivars might facilitate to adjust peduncle morphology for improved plant stability or enlarged straw biomass production independent of flowering time and without detrimental effects on grain yield.
