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

backgroundLu'an, as one of the two major tea-producing areas in Anhui Province, has a long history of tea planting and rich tea germplasm resources. However, the genetic diversity and population structure of local tea plants are still unclear. In order to better protect and utilize tea germplasm resources in Lu'an, 217 tea accessions from six geographical origins were used to assess genetic diversity of Lu'an tea plant germplasm through double digest restriction-site associated DNA sequencing (ddRAD-seq) technology.

resultsA total of 306,320 high quality single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers were obtained. Population structure, phylogenetic relationships and principal component analysis (PCA) divided the entire population into three groups. The genetic diversity and population differentiation analysis showed that the mean observed heterozygosity (Ho) was 0.06 ∼ 0.17, average nucleotide diversity (Pi) was 0.13 ∼ 0.26, and pairwise fixation index (Fst) was 0.01 ∼ 0.15. In addition, a core tea germplasm set composed of 50 tea germplasm sets was established.

conclusionOur study demonstrated that the germplasm resources of the Lu'an tea plants exhibit significant genetic diversity. A core germplasm sets for the Lu'an tea plants has been established, which effectively represents the genetic diversity of the entire tea germplasm collection. This study provided the basis for genetic research, germplasm protection and breeding of tea plants in Lu'an.
