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

MAIN

conclusionGWAS identified key genetic loci on chromosome 8 associated with early growth vigor in direct-seeded rice, with four candidate genes (including a zinc-finger protein gene) implicated in regulating seed germination and leaf growth. Direct seeding rice, recognized for its water-efficient and resource-conserving attributes, has seen a steady expansion in cultivation area. However, this method demands enhanced early growth vigor and rapid developmental traits in seeds. To unravel the genetic basis of these characteristics, we performed genome-wide association studies (GWASs) on 196 rice accessions. Whole-genome resequencing of the panel was integrated with population structure analysis to identify loci governing early growth dynamics. Subsequent high-density genotyping pinpointed significant associations on chromosome 8, where single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) correlated strongly with target traits. In proximity to the GWAS signals, four genes were highlighted as potential candidate genes. The identified candidate genes encode zinc-finger proteins involved in regulating seed germination and leaf growth. This finding provides a basis for further functional validation of these candidate genes through the development of multiple mutant lines.
