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

Plant phenotyping experiments are conducted under a variety of experimental parameters and settings for diverse purposes. The data they produce is heterogeneous, complicated, often poorly documented and, as a result, difficult to reuse. Meeting societal needs (nutrition, crop adaptation and stability) requires more efficient methods toward data integration and reuse. In this work, we examine what "making data FAIR" entails, and investigate the benefits and the struggles not only of reusing FAIR data, but also making data FAIR using genotype by environment and QTL by environment interactions for developmental traits in potato as a case study. We assume the role of a scientist discovering a phenotypic dataset on a FAIR data point, verifying the existence of related datasets with environmental data, acquiring both and integrating them. We report and discuss the challenges and the potential for reusability and reproducibility of FAIRifying existing datasets, using metadata standards such as MIAPPE, that were encountered in this process.
