AcRR1 of Agropyron cristatum boosts wheat yield by regulating grain number per spike and heading date.

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
Uncovering desirable alien genes from wild species is important for increasing genetic variation and ensuring wheat production. Here, we identify a type-B response regulator (RR) AcRR1 of Agropyron cristatum. Ectopic expression of AcRR1 in common wheat increases the grain number per spike without decreasing the grain weight, thereby enhancing the grain yield by 9.7‒12.3% under field conditions. Expression of the AcRR1 gene also promotes plant growth and shortens the duration of vernalization in the transgenic plants. We reveal that AcRR1 reprogrammes diverse transcriptional processes in wheat by activating the expression of TaWOX11-2D and TabHLH25-5B-TaFTs, which are involved in floret fertility and early heading. Our results demonstrate that AcRR1 from A. cristatum is a valuable alien gene with the capacity to activate genetic networks for wheat yield formation, offering a promising avenue for enhancing wheat productivity through the introduction of alien genes.
