Screening and Comprehensive Evaluation of Drought Resistance in Cotton Germplasm Resources at the Germination Stage.
Article in Plants (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Drought stress has a significant impact on cotton growth, development, and productivity. This study conducted drought stress treatment and normal water treatment (control group) on 502 cotton accessions and analyzed data on eight phenotypic traits closely related to drought stress tolerance. The results showed that all indicators changed significantly under drought stress conditions compared to the control group, with varying degrees of response among different indicators. To comprehensively evaluate the drought resistance of cotton during the germination period, the values of drought resistance comprehensive evaluation (D-value), weight drought resistance coefficient (WDC-value), and comprehensive drought resistance coefficient (CDC-value) were calculated based on membership function analysis and principal component analysis. Cluster analysis based on the D-value divided the germplasm into five drought-resistant grades, followed by the selection of one extreme material, each from the strongly drought-resistant and strongly drought-sensitive groups. An evaluation model was established using stepwise regression analysis, including the following effective indicators: Relative Fresh Weight (RFW), Relative Hypocotyl Length (RHL), Relative Seeds Water Absorption Rate (RAR), Relative Germination Rate (RGR), Relative Germination Potential (RGP), and Relative Drought Tolerance Index (RDT). The validation of the D-value prediction model based on the Best Linear Unbiased Prediction (BLUP) showed that the results obtained from two independent biological replicates were highly consistent. The comprehensive evaluation system and screening indicators established in this study provide a reliable method for identifying drought tolerance during the germination period.
