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

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is among the most extensively grown staple crops worldwide. A set of 188 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a cross between HD2932 and Synthetic 46 was evaluated over three consecutive years (2021-22, 2022-23, and 2023-24) for plant height (PH), spike length (SL), spikelets per spike (SPS), thousand kernel weight (TKW), kernel length (KL), kernel width (KW), and kernel thickness (KT). The population displayed wide phenotypic variability with quantitative inheritance for all the traits. High-density genotyping was performed using 910 SSR markers and a 35K SNP array. Twenty-eight QTLs, including six for PH, two for SL, three for SPS, two for TKW, five for KL, six for KW, and four for KT distributed across 16 chromosomes were identified. QTkw.iari_4B, flanked by Xgwm149-AX-94559916, was detected in all three environments (Q × E not formally tested) consistently and co-localized with QTLs for PH, KL, and KT, indicating a potentially important genomic region for yield improvement. Promising lines such as RIL 122 and RIL 66 exhibited superior kernel characteristics, while RIL 155 showed lower expression values. In silico analysis identified 28 candidate genes within these QTL regions, offering insights into trait regulation. These findings may serve as potential resources for marker-assisted selection in wheat breeding programs to enhance yield and grain quality parameters.
