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

In wheat, a multi-locus genome-wide association study (ML-GWAS) was conducted for the four grain weight-related traits (days to anthesis, grain filling duration, grain number per ear, and grain weight per ear) using data recorded under irrigated (IR) and rain-fed (RF) conditions. Seven stress-related indices were estimated for these four traits: (i) drought resistance index (DI), (ii) geometric mean productivity (GMP), (iii) mean productivity index (MPI), (iv) relative drought index (RDI), (v) stress tolerance index (STI), (vi) yield index, and (vii) yield stability index (YSI). The association panel consisted of a core collection of 320 spring wheat accessions representing 28 countries. The panel was genotyped using 9,627 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The genome-wide association (GWA) analysis provided 30 significant marker-trait associations (MTAs), distributed as follows: (i) IR (15 MTAs), (ii) RF (14 MTAs), and (iii) IR+RF (1 MTA). In addition, 153 MTAs were available for the seven stress-related indices. Five MTAs co-localized with previously reported QTLs/MTAs. Candidate genes (CGs) associated with different MTAs were also worked out. Gene ontology (GO) analysis and expression analysis together allowed the selection of the two CGs, which may be involved in response to drought stress. These two CGs included: TraesCS1A02G331000 encoding RNA helicase and TraesCS4B02G051200 encoding microtubule-associated protein 65. The results supplemented the current knowledge on genetics for drought tolerance in wheat. The results may also be used for future wheat breeding programs to develop drought-tolerant wheat cultivars.
