Genome-Wide Association Study of Vascular Bundle-Related Traits in Maize Stalk.
Article in Frontiers in plant science, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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.
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
The vascular bundle plays an important role in nutrient transportation in plants and exerts great influence on crop yield. Maize is widely used for food, feed, and fuel, producing the largest yield in the world. However, genes and molecular mechanism controlling vascular bundle-related traits in maize have largely remained undiscovered. In this study, a natural population containing 248 diverse maize inbred lines genotyped with high-throughput SNP markers was used for genome-wide association study. The results showed that broad variations existed for the vascular bundle-related traits which are subject to genetic structure and it was suitable for association analysis. In this study, we identified 15, 13, 2, 1, and 5 SNPs significantly associated with number of small vascular bundle, number of large vascular bundle, average area of single small vascular bundle, average area of single large vascular bundle, and cross-sectional area, respectively. The 210 candidate genes in the confidence interval can be classified into ten biological processes, three cellular components, and eight molecular functions. As for the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analysis of the candidate genes, a total of six pathways were identified. Finally, we found five genes related to vascular development, three genes related to cell wall, and two genes related to the mechanical strength of the stalk. Our results provide the further understanding of the genetic foundation of vascular bundle-related traits in maize stalk.
