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

Culm diameter directly affects lodging and yield traits in cereal crops. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of these interrelated, complex agronomic traits remain unclear. Here, we identify a quantitative trait locus for culm diameter in rice (Oryza sativa) and cloned the candidate gene, STRONG1. This gene encodes MICROTUBULE-ASSOCIATED PROTEIN 70 (MAP70), which localizes to cortical microtubules and alters the arrangement of the microtubule skeleton. Knockout or knockdown of STRONG1 enhances grain yield by synchronously improving lodging resistance, panicle architecture, and plant architecture. One single-nucleotide polymorphism, SNP - 1304 (C to A), in a MYB61-binding site within the STRONG1 promoter affects its expression, resulting in changes in cellulose content and sclerenchyma cell wall development. Rice accessions harboring the Hap-STRONG1
