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

backgroundWeeds significantly threaten wheat production by competing for essential resources and facilitating the spread of pests and diseases. The use of herbicides is the most common approach for controlling weeds. There is an urgent need of mining molecular markers and key genes for herbicide tolerance to accelerate marker assisted/molecular design breeding of new wheat cultivars with improved tolerance to herbicides. However, it is very difficult and costly to mine molecular markers and key genes for complex quantitative trait like herbicide tolerance, especially in wheat, a typical allopolyploid with large complex genome.

resultsTwo practical KASP markers were developed with 77.6%-87.9% conformity between genotype and phenotype of the tolerance to metribuzin (a commonly used herbicide) in wheat with targeted optimization of a conventional BSA-based approach named SRV. The two SNPs corresponding to these two KASP markers are closely linked with two independent genes on chromosome 2AS and both encoding for IgA (Immunoglobulin A) FC receptor protein. More interestingly, another 9 genes having the same annotation of IgA FC receptor were detected within 1 Mbp distance of the two SNPs, forming a gene cluster.

conclusionsThis study has provided valuable insights into the development of KASP markers for metribuzin tolerance in wheat and has identified putative genes that may be involved in herbicide resistance metabolic regulation.
