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.
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
BACKGROUND AND
aimsPhosphorus (P) is a crucial macronutrient for plant growth that, despite its abundance in soils, is often a limiting factor in agricultural productivity, particularly for cereals such as wheat. In this study, the response of different wheat genotypes to two different levels of P was evaluated in a large trial encompassing 26 genotypes using two distinct root phenotyping platforms, ALSIA and 4PMI.
methodsRhizotubes allowed non-invasive root phenotyping, revealing significant genotypic effects on biomass production and root system traits. Phosphorus acquisition and use efficiency of the wheat genotypes were estimated by using five different metrics. KEY
resultsA synthetic indicator for agronomic relevance integrating the efficiency metrics was established. Under optimal conditions, after 96 d, P acquisition efficiency (PAE) was inversely correlated with P utilization efficiency (PUE), suggesting an acquisition-use trade-off. Conversely, under low P conditions, both after 27 and 96 days PAE and PUE showed moderate positive correlations, indicating adaptive coordination to improve P utilization under scarcity.
conclusionsOverall, our findings highlighted the importance of root-target strategies in P efficiency in wheat, providing insights for breeders to enhance P deficiency tolerance in wheat.
