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

Heterosis refers to the phenomenon where the first filial offspring (F1) from genetically diverse parents displays advantages in growth rate, yield, and adaptability compared with its parents. The exploitation of heterosis in rice breeding has greatly increased the productivity, making a significant contribution to food security in the last half of the century. Conventional hybrid rice breeding highly relies on the breeder's experience on random crossing and comprehensive field selection. This process is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In recent years, rice hybrid breeding has encountered challenges stemming from limited germplasm resource, low breeding efficiency, and high uncertainty, which constrain the progress in yield increase, coupled with difficulties in balancing grain yield, quality, and resistance. Understanding the genetic basis of rice heterosis could lead to significant advancements in breeding concepts and methods. This will fully unleash the advantages of heterosis. In this review, we focus on the research progress of the genetic dissection of crop heterosis and briefly introduce some key advancements in modern intelligent breeding of rice hybrid.
