New genomic resources to boost research in reproductive biology to enable cost-effective hybrid seed production.
Article in The plant genome, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The commercial realization of hybrid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a major technological challenge to sustainably increase food production for our growing population in a changing climate. Despite recent advances in cytoplasmic- and nuclear-based pollination control systems, the inefficient outcrossing of wheat's autogamous florets remains a barrier to hybrid seed production. There is a pressing need to investigate wheat floral biology and enhance the likelihood of ovaries being fertilized by airborne pollen so breeders can select and utilize male and female parents for resilient, scalable, and cost-effective hybrid seed production. Advances in understanding the wheat genomes and pangenome will aid research into the underlying floral organ development and fertility with the aim to stabilize pollination and fertilization under a changing climate. The purpose of this position paper is to highlight priority areas of research to support hybrid wheat development, including (1) structural aspects of florets that affect stigma presentation, longevity, and receptivity to airborne pollen, (2) pollen release dynamics (e.g., anther extrusion and dehiscence), and (3) the effect of heat, drought, irradiation, and humidity on these reproductive traits. A combined approach of increased understanding built on the genomic resources and advanced trait evaluation will deliver to robust measures for key floral characteristics, such that diverse germplasm can be fully exploited to realize the yield improvements and yield stability offered by hybrids.
