Performance of buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench) in response to variable sowing time in low altitude conditions.
Article in BMC plant biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
aimsThe pseudocereal buckwheat has been recognized as short duration and nutrient dense crop, thus suitable for sustainable agriculture. Buckwheat grains are gluten free and provide health benefits beyond basic nutrition. Buckwheat is generally cultivated in hilly areas of Pakistan at higher elevation of 2500 m above sea level (a.s.l), while its area is declining in the past recent years. Keeping in view the importance of buckwheat, it requires to test the adaptability of buckwheat in other ecologies for its revival. Evaluation of a crop in new ecology particularly in low altitude (122 m a.s.l), requires optimization of sowing time for estimation of yield potential, crop phenology and grain nutritional profile. Therefore, performance of buckwheat was evaluated in response to variable sowing times in low altitude (122 m a.s.l) agroclimatic conditions of Multan, Pakistan.
methodsTwo well adapted buckwheat genotypes (Silverhull 24 and Japanese B + 0 IR-13) were sown over two consecutive growing seasons (2020-21 and 2021-22) with an interval of one month between sowing times (starting from the first week of October to February). The sowing time experiments were carried out in climatic conditions of Multan at the Research Farm of MNS University of Agriculture (30°9'54.79″N 71°29'48.72″E Multan, Pakistan).
resultsGenotype Silverhull-24 had higher grain yield (1.27 t ha
conclusionBuckwheat found adaptable in low altitude of Multan, Pakistan under climatic conditions and genotype Japanese B + 0 IR-13 can be sown in early winter (1
