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

backgroundVegetable oils are primarily composed of unsaturated fatty acids. Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] oil, accounting for 28% of the global production of vegetable oil, contains mainly two saturated fatty acids (palmitic acid and stearic acid) and three unsaturated fatty acids (oleic acid, linoleic acid, and linolenic acid) in seeds.

objectiveThe five fatty acids determine soybean oil quality. We aimed to identify genetic relationship between genomics and fatty acid contents in soybean mutant pool.

methodsThis study used a mutant diversity pool (MDP) comprising 192 soybean lines. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted with the diverse fatty acid contents in MDP and 17,631 filtered SNPs from genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS).

resultsThe GWAS revealed nine significant SNPs within intragenic regions that were associated with fatty acid composition. These SNPs corresponded to six genes (Glyma.03g042500, Glyma.07g069200, Glyma.13g150200, Glyma.14g223100, Glyma.15g084700, and Glyma.15g274000), of which three (Glyma.03g042500, Glyma.13g150200, and Glyma.15g274000) were predicted to be candidate genes influencing oleic acid, linoleic acid, and linolenic acid contents. Analyses of SNP allelic effects revealed the largest and smallest significant differences in fatty acid contents were 5.53% (linolenic acid) and 0.4% (stearic acid), respectively.

conclusionThe present study detected significant phenotypic variations and genetic associations underlying the fatty acid composition of soybean seeds in MDP lines. The mutant seeds differed from the original cultivars in terms of fatty acids composition, with the allelic effects of significant SNPs influencing the fatty acid content in seeds. These findings may be useful for enhancing breeding strategies to optimize soybean oil quality for various uses.
