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

Optimizing soybean yield remains a crucial challenge in meeting global food security demands. In this study, we report a comprehensive genetic analysis of yield-related traits in soybeans using a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from crosses between 'Qihuang 34' (GH34) and 'Dongsheng 16' (DS16). Phenotypic analysis across two years (2023-2024) revealed significant variations between parental lines. Through high-density genetic mapping with 6297 SLAF markers spanning 2945.26 cM across 20 chromosomes, we constructed a genetic map with an average marker distance of 0.47 cM and 99.17% of gaps under 5 cM. QTL analysis identified ten significant loci across both years: in 2023, we detected six QTLs, including a major main stem node number (MSNN) QTL on chromosome 19 (LOD = 22.59, PVE = 24.57%), two seed number (SN) QTLs on chromosomes 14 and 18 (LOD = 2.52-2.85, PVE = 7.35% combined), and one pod number (PN) QTL on chromosome 20 (LOD = 4.68, PVE = 5.85%). The 2024 analysis revealed four major QTLs, notably a cluster on chromosome 19 harboring significant loci for MSNN (LOD = 37.92, PVE = 43.59%), PN (LOD = 18.16, PVE = 23.02%), and SN (LOD = 15.24, PVE = 19.59%). Within the stable chromosome 19 region, we identified seventeen candidate genes involved in crucial developmental processes. Gene expression analysis revealed distinct temporal patterns between parental lines during vegetative and reproductive stages, with GH34 showing dramatically higher expression of key reproductive genes
