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

As a crucial root vegetable, the phenomenon of bolting and flowering presents a significant challenge to the commercial value of carrot. However, the genetic mechanism of carrot bolting remains to be fully elucidated. In this study, we conducted a two-year cultivation experiment with a population of 240 carrots to examine traits associated with bolting. We conducted whole-genome sequencing on these carrots and subsequently performed population structure analysis, as well as genome-wide association studies (GWAS). A total of nine single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) loci were identified across diverse environmental conditions that exhibited significant associations with bolting speed and other traits. Furthermore, within 93 candidate genes identified, the RING-domain zinc-finger protein LOC108205243 was determined to play a significant role in the regulation of bolting traits. The SNPs and candidate genes identified in this research may serve as molecular markers for bolting traits, thereby offering essential resources for genetic engineering breeding efforts aimed at managing bolting in carrots.
