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
key messageWe detected the major QTL- qSR.A07, which regulated stem strength and was fine-mapped to 490 kb. BnaA07G0302800ZS and BnaA07G0305700ZS as the candidate functional genes were identified at qSR.A07 locus. The stem's mechanical properties reflect its ability to resist lodging. In rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), although stem lodging negatively affects yield and generates harvesting difficulties, the molecular regulation of stem strength remains elusive. Hence, this study aimed to unravel the main loci and molecular mechanisms governing rapeseed stem strength. A mapping population consisting of 267 RILs (recombinant inbred lines) was developed from the crossed between ZS11 (high stem strength) and 4D122 (low stem strength), and two mechanical properties of stems including stem breaking strength and stem rind penetrometer resistance were phenotyped in four different environments. Four pleiotropic QTLs that were stable in at least two environments were detected. qSR.A07, the major one, was fine-mapped to a 490 kb interval between markers SA7-2711 and SA7-2760 on chromosome 7. It displayed epistatic interaction with qRPR.A09-2. Comparative transcriptome sequencing and analysis unveiled methionine/S-adenosylmethionine cycle (Met/SAM cycle), cytoskeleton organization, sulfur metabolism and phenylpropanoid biosynthesis as the main pathways associated with high stem strength. Further, we identified two candidate genes, BnaA07G0302800ZS and BnaA07G0305700ZS, at qSR.A07 locus. Gene sequence alignment identified a number of InDels, SNPs and amino acid variants in sequences of these genes between ZS11 and 4D122. Finally, based on these genetic variants, we developed three SNP markers of these genes to facilitate future genetic selection and functional studies. These findings offer important genetic resources for the molecular-assisted breeding of novel rapeseed stem lodging-resistant varieties.
