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

backgroundMacrotyloma geocarpum is a socio-economically important and nutrient-rich opportunity legume crop in which a broader genetic basis is required for an accelerated higher-yielding cultivar development. MATERIALS AND

methodsHere, we reported for the first time the performance of a set of 300 mutants developed along with five local checks for their agronomic features spanning vegetative, physiological, developmental, seed and yield traits in an augmented design scheme. Descriptive statistics, correlation and multivariate analyses were combined to analyze the data.

resultsBroader genotypic variability was observed in grain yield. Mutants were top outperformers for all traits. For instance, we observed a four-fold variation for grain yield between the best check (Check 3: 643.7 kg.ha

conclusionGenotypes of this Cluster 3 including for instance mutants ML645, ML619, ML10126 and ML1000 offer a good opportunity for market development and can be leveraged to advance elite individuals' selection for M. geocarpum improvement.
