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

key messageIn the present study, we identified 22 significant SNPs, eight stable QTLs and 17 potential candidate genes associated with 100-seed weight in soybean. Soybean is an economically important crop that is rich in seed oil and protein. The 100-seed weight (HSW) is a crucial yield contributing trait. This trait exhibits complex inheritance regulated by many genes and is highly sensitive to environmental factors. In this study, an integrated strategy of association mapping, QTL analysis, candidate gene and haplotype analysis was utilized to elucidate the complex genetic architecture of HSW in a panel of diverse soybean cultivars. Our study revealed 22 SNPs significantly associated with HSW through association mapping using five GWAS models across multiple environments plus a combined environment. By considering the detection of SNPs in multiple environments and GWAS models, the genomic regions of eight consistent SNPs within the ± 213.5 kb were depicted as stable QTLs. Among the eight QTLs, four, viz. qGW1.1, qGW1.2, qGW9 and qGW16, are reported here for the first time, and the other four, viz. qGW4, qGW8, qGW17 and qGW19, have been reported in previous studies. Thirty-two genes were detected as putative candidates within physical intervals of eight QTLs by in silico analysis. Twelve genes (out of total 32) showed significant differential expression patterns among the soybean accessions with contrasting HSW. Moreover, different haplotype alleles of 10 candidate genes are associated with different phenotypes of HSW. The outcome of the current investigation can be used in soybean breeding programs for producing cultivars with higher yields.
