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

A large proportion of global peanut cultivation occurs in arid and semiarid environments, where water scarcity poses a major limitation to productivity. Climate change further intensifies this challenge by causing irregular rainfall patterns. This study aimed to investigate the physiological and yield responses of peanut genotypes under well-watered and water-stressed conditions. Seven genotypes, five drought-tolerant (C76-16, Line-8, PI 502120, AU-NPL-17 and AU16-28) and two drought-sensitive (Valencia-C and AP-3) were evaluated under two irrigation regimes across consecutive years (2024 and 2025). Seven yield-associated traits (number of pods per plant, pod length, pod width, pod yield per plant, seed weight, hundred-seed weight and pod yield per plot) along with three physiological traits (stomatal conductance, photosynthetic efficiency and leaf temperature) were measured at three growth stages. Drought stress caused a significant reduction in almost all traits, including pod yield per plot (42-44%) and hundred-seed weight (24-38%). Stomatal conductance showed the greatest reduction at all stages, especially during flowering (31-80%) and pod filling (45-74%) stages. Correlation analysis revealed that yield-related traits were negatively correlated with stomatal conductance at pod-filling under water-stress conditions. Genotypes such as PI 502120, AU-NPL-17 and C76-16 maintained higher yields with less reduction under water-stressed conditions. This study also confirmed that Line-8 employs a water-saver strategy, whereas PI 502120 uses a water-spender mechanism to cope with water stress. Additionally, findings showed that the flowering and pod-filling stages are more severely affected physiologically by drought stress, which likely contributed to the observed yield reduction.
