Revealing the Application of Synchrotron-Based X-Ray Computed Tomography in Healthy Versus Unhealthy Interior Lodgepole Pine (
Article in Plant direct, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The reproductive cycle of interior lodgepole pine spans approximately 26 months, with seed cones initiating in late summer, followed by pollen conelets emerging the next spring when pollination occurs. Fertilization and cone maturation occur in the subsequent spring and fall. Successful pollination, critical for seed conelet retention, requires an ~80% success rate. In June 2020, 30 pine clones (genotypes), with contrasting conelet abortion rates, were selected from a production seed orchard in Alberta, Canada. Sixty conelets per clone (30 aborted and 30 healthy) were collected for synchrotron radiation-based microcomputed tomography (SR-μCT) analysis. A subset of two contrasting clones (1401 and 596) was selected for detailed study. Conelets were transported to the Canadian Light Source in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, for SR-μCT Phase Contrast Imaging (PCI), where samples were mounted and scanned using a PCO Edge 5.5 sCMOS camera and analyzed using Avizo software to visualize internal structures. Results showed that healthy conelets in clones 1401 and 596 had greater tissue volume (248.8 and 251.9 mm
