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

backgroundDrought is one of the major factors affecting the growth and development of potatoes. Screening drought-tolerant potato germplasm is of great significance for drought tolerance research and the utilization of drought-tolerant germplasm resources.

resultsIn this study, a two-year field evaluation of drought tolerance was conducted on 31 potato germplasm resources from 2023 to 2024. The experimental treatments included normal irrigation (NI) and drought stress (DS). A total of 24 indices related to potato morphology, photosynthesis, physiology, and yield were selected for drought tolerance evaluation. All indices exhibited varying degrees of change under drought stress. Correlation analysis revealed significant correlations among the drought tolerance coefficients of the 24 measured indicators. Principal component analysis was used to transform the 24 conventional indicators into six independent and comprehensive components, with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 86.38%. Using D-value cluster analysis, the 31 potato germplasm resources were classified into five categories: strong drought tolerance, moderate drought tolerance, intermediate drought tolerance, drought-sensitive, and extremely drought-sensitive. Stepwise regression analysis indicated that the following indicators could be used as objective evaluation criteria for drought tolerance in the mid-to-late growth stages of potatoes: fresh above-ground biomass, dry above-ground biomass, fresh below-ground biomass, dry below-ground biomass, chlorophyll content, relative chlorophyll content, net photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, superoxide dismutase activity, number of large tubers per plant, fresh tuber weight per plant, and plot yield.

conclusionsAmong them, the strong drought-tolerant materials included Long 10, D1595-7, Lin 18, Tong 31, and D16105-14. The results of this study provide theoretical references and practical guidance for potato drought-tolerant breeding, drought tolerance mechanisms, and drought-tolerant cultivation techniques.
