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

key messageLeaf and panicle blast resistances were moderately correlated and controlled by several genes, including Pi2/Pi9 and Pi33. GWAS-based marker weighting increased GBLUP predictive ability by up to 37% across two rice populations. Breeding for blast resistance remains a high priority in rice (Oryza sativa L.) improvement, yet the genetic complexity of leaf blast (BL) and panicle blast (PB) continues to challenge prediction accuracy in genomic selection (GS). Traditional GS approaches, such as genomic best linear unbiased prediction (GBLUP), assume equal contribution from all markers, potentially limiting the capture of key resistance loci. Recent advances integrating genome-wide association studies (GWAS) into GS offer new opportunities to weight markers based on their biological relevance. In this study, we dissected the genetic architecture of BL and PB resistance in two diverse rice populations and evaluated the performance of three weighted GBLUP models that incorporate marker information from GWAS. Marker weighting strategies included F
