Pollen longevity and viability dataset: an integrated resource for plant research and conservation.
Article in The New phytologist, 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
Pollen viability and longevity are key traits in plant reproduction, with implications for gene flow, crop breeding, and ex situ plant conservation. However, published data on these traits remain dispersed across disciplines, languages, and methods, limiting their accessibility and reuse. Here, we present a curated, taxonomically broad dataset compiling pollen viability over time for 274 vascular plant species extracted from 320 primary publications published between 1962 and 2023. The dataset includes germination- and staining-based viability estimates under defined storage conditions, along with metadata on species identity, experimental design, and pollen traits. To facilitate data exploration and application, the full dataset is openly available via an online repository and accompanied by an interactive Shiny App that allows users to filter, visualize, and download customized subsets. This resource provides a structured foundation for comparative analyses of pollen longevity and viability within well-represented clades and experimental contexts. It supports trait-based and applied research when combined with external data sources, while also serving as a starting point for future syntheses.
