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

Early Seedling Vigor (ESV) is a critical trait for direct-seeded rice (DSR), as it promotes rapid seedling establishment and effective weed suppression. Enhancing ESV is therefore essential for developing varieties adapted to DSR conditions. This study aimed to accelerate genetic gain for ESV traits through Marker-Assisted Pedigree Selection (MAPS) by leveraging reported quantitative trait loci (QTLs). Markers associated with ESV and grain size (GS) traits were validated using bulked segregant analysis (BSA) and haplotype analysis. These validated markers were then applied to select progenies carrying different combinations of the targeted QTLs from the F4 to F7 generations derived from a cross between MTU3626 (an ESV donor) and BPT5204 (a medium-slender grain size) variety. Using MAPS, 20 promising lines were identified, with QTL combinations ranging from nine QTLs in line BM3 to three QTLs in lines BM284 and BM410. Notably, the presence of Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s12298-025-01635-w.
