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

Tetraploid wheats (Triticum turgidum L.), including durum wheat (T. turgidum ssp. durum (Desf.) Husn.), are important crops with high nutritional and cultural values. However, their production is constrained by sensitivity to environmental conditions. In search of adaptive genetic signatures tracing historical selection and hybridization events, we performed genome scans on two datasets: (1) Durum Global Diversity Panel comprising a total of 442 tetraploid wheat and wild progenitor accessions including durum landraces (n = 286), domesticated emmer (T. turgidum ssp. dicoccum (Schrank) Thell.; n = 103) and wild emmer (T. turgidum ssp. dicoccoides (Korn. ex Asch. & Graebn.) Thell.; n = 53) wheats genotyped using the 90K single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array, and (2) a second dataset comprising a total 121 accessions of nine T. turgidum subspecies including wild emmer genotyped with >100 M SNPs from whole-genome resequencing. The genome scan on the first dataset detected six outlier loci on chromosomes 1A, 1B, 3A (n = 2), 6A, and 7A. These loci harbored important genes for adaptation to abiotic stresses, phenological responses, such as seed dormancy, circadian clock, flowering time, and key yield-related traits, including pleiotropic genes, such as HAT1, KUODA1, CBL1, and ZFN1. The scan on the second dataset captured a highly differentiated region on chromosome 2B that shows significant differentiation between two groups: one group consists of Georgian (T. turgidum ssp. paleocolchicum A. Love & D. Love) and Persian (T. turgidum ssp. carthlicum (Nevski) A. Love & D. Love) wheat accessions, while the other group comprises all the remaining tetraploids including wild emmer. This is consistent with a previously reported introgression in this genomic region from T. timopheevii Zhuk. which naturally cohabit in the Georgian and neighboring areas. This region harbored several adaptive genes, including the thermomorphogenesis gene PIF4, which confers temperature-resilient disease resistance and regulates other biological processes. Genome scans can be used to fast-track germplasm housed in gene banks and in situ; which helps to identify environmentally resilient accessions for breeding and/or to prioritize them for conservation.
