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

Foxtail millet is a plant that is highly drought-resistant and rich in nutrients. Its grain structure traits are linked with water uptake during grain germination, which is closely related to plant density for high yield under rain fed regions; however, there is no related research. Using Micro-CT technology, we investigated a total of 15 internal structure traits of foxtail millet grains, such as the volume and surface area of the embryo, endosperm, cavity, hull, and whole grain, and mapped relevant quantitative trait loci (QTLs) using recombination inbred lines (RILs). With phenotypic variations in these traits and genome sequences of 100 foxtail millet RILs, four QTLs were identified. In combination with transcriptome profiling during grain development, we identified seven candidate genes that may play a role in the regulation of grain structure in foxtail millet.
