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

backgroundChemical mutagenesis coupled with molecular marker analysis is an efficient strategy for accelerating crop improvement and creating crop genetic diversity, yet optimized protocols and comprehensive evaluations chemical mutagenesis-assisted forage oats traits improvement and breeding understudied. This study aimed to assess sodium azide (SA)-induced mutagenesis in two oat varieties (Everleaf and 709) by characterizing phenotypic and molecular variations, identifying tissue-specific mutation patterns, and establishing efficient treatment parameters for breeding.

resultsSA treatment at > 10 mmol·L⁻

conclusionsSA induces extensive and diverse heritable phenotypic and molecular variations in oats, with mutation spectra showing tissue-specific trends. The mutant libraries and polymorphic SSR markers developed provide a valuable resource for oat breeding and functional genomics. This work establishes a protocol for SA mutagenesis in oats and delivers mutant germplasm with broad applicability in trait improvement and genetic research.
