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

Drought is one of the most devasting and frequent abiotic stresses in agriculture. While many morphological, biochemical and physiological indicators are being used to quantify plant drought responses, stomatal control, and hence the transpiration and photosynthesis regulation through it, is of particular importance in marking the plant capacity of balancing stress response and yield. Due to the difficulties in simultaneous, large-scale measurement of stomatal traits such as sensitivity and speed of stomatal closure under progressive soil drought, forward genetic mapping of these important behaviors has long been unavailable. The recent emerging phenomic technologies offer solutions to identify the water relations of whole plant and assay the stomatal regulation in a dynamic process at the population level. Here, we report high-throughput physiological phenotyping of water relations of 106 cowpea accessions under progressive drought stress, which, in combination of genome-wide association study (GWAS), enables genetic mapping of the complex, stomata-related drought responsive traits "critical soil water content" (θ
