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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesPlant architecture and kernel-related traits are important determinants of yield potential and breeding value in peanut (

methodsA recombinant inbred line population derived from Luojiangjiwo, a sprawling large-pod line, and Fuhuasheng, an erect small-pod line, was used to construct a high-density genetic linkage map and identify QTL associated with plant architecture and kernel traits.

resultsSpecific-locus amplified fragment sequencing generated 1,295,490,603 clean reads, with an average Q30 of 93.67%. After SNP discovery, filtering, and linkage analysis, 2646 SNP markers were mapped to 20 linkage groups, spanning 1338.86 cM with an average marker interval of 0.51 cM. Phenotypic evaluation of 16 traits revealed broad variation among 200 recombinant inbred lines, with strong positive correlations among pod-size traits and among kernel-size traits. Composite interval mapping detected eight QTL distributed on chr04, chr05, chr13, and chr15, including five QTL for plant architecture traits and three QTL for kernel-related traits. qLBL13 for lateral branch length explained the highest phenotypic variation, whereas qMKL05 for mean kernel length was delimited to a 0.151 Mb interval containing only nine genes. Candidate-gene analysis prioritized

conclusionsThis study identified genomic regions and biologically relevant candidate genes associated with plant architecture and kernel-related traits in peanut. These findings provide valuable genomic resources for future functional validation and facilitate marker-assisted breeding for improved plant architecture and kernel characteristics.
