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

Drought stress inhibits the development of maize ears. Abscisic acid (ABA) is a plant hormone that can regulate the physicology metabolism under abiotic stress. In this study, maize varieties Zhengdan 958 (ZD958) and Xianyu 335 (XY335) with different filling stages were used as materials. Three treatments were set in the filling period: normal irrigation (CK), drought stress (stress); exogenous ABA + drought stress (ABA+stress). They were used to study the physiological regulation of exogenous ABA on maize ears development during drought stress. Exogenous ABA inhibited bald tip and the decline of maize plant biomass, and increased the number and weight of grains per ear at harvest under drought stress by regulating photosynthetic pigment content (Chla, Chlb, Car), gas exchange parameters (Pn, Tr, gs, Ci, Ls), Chla fluorescence parameters (Fv/Fm, ФPSII, ETR, qP, NPQ), chloroplast structure and function, photosynthetic enzyme activity, and the transcription level of genes coding SUTs (ZmSUT1, ZmSUT2, ZmSUT4, ZmSUT6). There was a significant correlation between physiological indexes of sucrose loading in maize and yield factors. This study discussed the mechanism of exogenous ABA alleviating maize ear dysplasia at grain filling stage under drought stress from the perspective of photosynthesis and sucrose transport.
