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

Fusiform rust disease, caused by the endemic fungus Cronartium quercuum f. sp. fusiforme, is the most damaging disease affecting economically important pine species in the southeast United States. Unlike the major epidemics of agricultural crops, the co-evolved pine-rust pathosystem is characterized by steady-state dynamics and high levels of genetic diversity within environments. This poses a unique challenge and opportunity for the deployment of large-effect resistance genes. We used trait dissection to study the genetic architecture of disease resistance in two P. taeda parents that showed high resistance across multiple environments. Two mapping populations (full-sib families), each with ~1000 progeny, were challenged with a complex inoculum consisting of 150 pathogen isolates. High-density linkage mapping revealed three major-effect QTL distributed on two linkage groups. All three QTL were validated using a population of 2057 cloned pine genotypes in a 6-year-old multi-environmental field trial. As a complement to the QTL mapping approach, bulked segregant RNAseq analysis revealed a small number of candidate nucleotide binding leucine-rich repeat genes harboring SNP associated with disease resistance. The results of this study show that in P. taeda, a small number of major QTL can provide effective resistance against genetically diverse mixtures of an endemic pathogen. These QTL vary in their impact on disease liability and exhibit additivity in combination.
