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

Genotypic diversity and genotype-environment (G × E) interactions affecting starch quality parameters were investigated in 28 sorghum genotypes over two growing seasons. Starch granule diameter ranged from 3.22 to 29.20 μm. Amylose content effectively distinguished waxy genotypes (∼5%) from non-waxy (∼20-33%) genotypes. Starch phosphorous content ranged widely from 109.26 to 618.06 ppm in environment 1 (E1) and 106.94 to 1753.24 ppm in environment 2 (E2). Starches in E1 had higher gelatinization temperatures but lower enthalpy than those in E2. Dynamic rheological analysis indicated that all starches displayed elasticity-dominated, weak-gel behavior, while steady-shear analysis showed consistent shear-thinning behavior with a flow index <1. Principal component analysis of starch quality parameters revealed 60.0% and 61.9% of total variance for E1 and E2, respectively. In addition, correlation analysis further highlighted a significant negative association between amylose content and crystallinity, thermal/retrogradation properties, and shear-thinning behavior across both environments. G × E results also showed significant impact of growing conditions on sorghum starch phosphorus levels, pasting and thermal properties. Together, these findings provide a foundation for developing improved sorghum cultivars tailored to food and industrial applications.
