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

Enhancing predictive modeling accuracy in wheat (Triticum aestivum) breeding through the integration of high-throughput phenotyping (HTP) data with genomic information is crucial for maximizing genetic gain. In this study, spanning four locations in the southeastern United States over 3 years, models to predict grain yield (GY) were investigated through different cross-validation approaches. The results demonstrate the superiority of multivariate comprehensive models that incorporate both genomic and HTP data, particularly in accurately predicting GY across diverse locations and years. These HTP-incorporating models achieve prediction accuracies ranging from 0.59 to 0.68, compared to 0.40-0.54 for genomic-only models when tested under different prediction scenarios both across years and locations. The comprehensive models exhibit superior generalization to new environments and achieve the highest accuracy when trained on diverse datasets. Predictive accuracy improves as models incorporate data from multiple years, highlighting the importance of considering temporal dynamics in modeling approaches. The study reveals that multivariate prediction outperformed genomic prediction methods in predicting lines across years and locations. The percentage of top 25% lines selected based on multivariate prediction was higher compared to genomic-only models, indicated by higher specificity, which is the proportion of correctly identified top-yielding lines that matched the observed top 25% performance across different sites and years. Additionally, the study addresses the prediction of untested locations based on other locations within the same year and in new years at previously tested locations. Findings show the comprehensive models effectively extrapolate to new environments, highlighting their potential for guiding breeding strategies.
