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

Polyploidy is prominent in plant evolution and in many of the world's most important crops, yet how domestication reshapes the regulation of duplicated genes (homoeologs) to generate superior agronomic traits remains incompletely understood. Here, we integrate population genomics, stage-resolved transcriptomics, expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) mapping, and coexpression network analysis across 161 semiwild and 376 cultivated accessions of allotetraploid cotton (
