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

Obtaining 2n pollen from the diploid Chinese old rose 'Old Blush' through artificial induction is one important means of hybridizing and breeding modern tetraploid roses. We used colchicine-induced 2n pollen to assess normal viability during hybridization and fructification. The results showed that the pollen mother cell had lagging chromosomes and parallel spindles at meiosis I stage, following which the 2n pollen was produced from dyads and triads with doubled chromosomes. We obtained 4.30% viable 2n pollen, which was significantly higher than the yield of the spontaneous 2n pollen (1.00%) using an optimal treatment combination of induction for 24 h with 0.50% colchicine. There was no significant difference between the external morphology of the induced 2n pollen and the spontaneous 2n pollen, whereas both types of 2n pollen possessed finer furrows, and fewer and smaller pores than the 1n pollen, and the external morphology of 2n pollen was more evolved. In terms of in vitro germination rate and pollen tube length, the induced 2n pollen did not differ significantly from the spontaneous 2n pollen. The survival rate of the floral buds was significantly decreased with increased colchicine concentration and treatment time.
