Evaluation of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) genotypes using genotype by trait (GT) and genotype by yield × trait (GYT) methods.
Article in Scientific reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.), a native South American crop with high nutritional value, is a promising option for sustainable agriculture in arid and semi-arid regions of Iran, due to its environmental tolerance and valuable composition. This study aimed to evaluate quinoa genotypes using genotype by trait (GT) and genotype by yield × trait (GYT) graphical methods. Twenty genotypes obtained from the IPK Gene Bank in Germany were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications over two cropping seasons (2023 and 2024) in Rasht, Iran. The evaluated traits comprised morphological, phenological, yield-related characteristics, and grain saponin content. The combined analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed highly significant genetic variation among the genotypes for all traits, with significant effects of year and genotype × year interaction on key traits, including grain yield. GT analysis indicated that the first and second principal components accounted for 26.35% and 19.52%, respectively, explaining a total of 47% of the variance, and confirmed significant positive correlations between grain yield and traits such as panicle length and thousand-grain weight, as well as significant negative correlations between grain yield and specific phenological characteristics. Based on the GT biplot, genotypes 2 and 17, being closest to the center of the concentric circles, were identified as near-ideal genotypes with balanced performance across most traits. In contrast, GYT analysis revealed that the first two principal components accounted for 91.51% of the total variance, and the alignment of GY×PH, GY × SD, and GY×NPP vectors indicated positive correlations among these traits. The GYT biplot suggested that genotypes 6, 8, and 20 had balanced yield-trait profiles, highlighting their potential usefulness for further evaluation. Overall, this study provides preliminary evidence of quinoa performance under the tested conditions and emphasizes the theoretical applicability of the GYT approach in quinoa breeding programs.
