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

Soil salinity is a serious threat to wheat yield affecting sustainable agriculture. Although salt tolerance is important for plant establishment at seedling stage, its genetic architecture remains unclear. In the present study, we have evaluated eight salt tolerance-related traits at seedling stage and identified the loci for salt tolerance by genome-wide association study (GWAS). This GWAS panel comprised 317 accessions and was genotyped with the wheat 90 K single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) chip. In total, 37 SNPs located at 16 unique loci were identified, and each explained 6.3 to 18.6% of the phenotypic variations. Among these, six loci were overlapped with previously reported genes or quantitative trait loci, whereas the other 10 were novel. Besides, nine loci were detected for two or more traits, indicating that the salt-tolerance genetic architecture is complex. Furthermore, five candidate genes were identified for salt tolerance-related traits, including kinase family protein, E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase-like protein, and transmembrane protein. SNPs identified in this study and the accessions with more favorable alleles could further enhance salt tolerance in wheat breeding. Our results are useful for uncovering the genetic mechanism of salt tolerance in wheat at seeding stage.
