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

Stomata are central to leaf gas exchange, governing carbon uptake, water loss, and, ultimately, crop performance. However, how stomatal anatomy and physiology integrate to determine wheat heat tolerance under field conditions remains poorly understood. Here, we examined the contribution of stomatal anatomical and physiological traits in shaping wheat responses to heat stress. Across 2 years of multi-environment field trials encompassing 200 genotypes in season 1 and 50 genotypes in season 2, we examined stomatal conductance (
