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

Fruit agriculture is undergoing a profound transformation driven by multi-omics, high-throughput phenotyping, and machine learning-driven bioinformatics. However, we demonstrate that this technological revolution has paradoxically created a 'valley of death' where most of genomic discoveries fail to reach farmers' fields. While we can now identify beneficial alleles in days and edit genomes in weeks, it still takes 10 years and 14,5 million euros to deliver a single improved cultivar to European markets - the same timeline as 30 years ago. This review exposes how data abundance has shifted, not eliminated, the fundamental bottlenecks in fruit crop improvement. We critically assess how these tools reshape genetic and metabolic diversity, emphasizing both their transformative promises and structural limitations. We highlight three persistent gaps: the challenge of integrating heterogeneous multi-omics datasets, the phenotyping bottleneck for complex traits, and the tension between innovation and biodiversity conservation. By framing fruit breeding as a "data-to-decisions" challenge, we outline the systemic changes needed for sustainable, resilient, and high-quality fruit production.
