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

backgroundGenetic improvement of rice for biotic stress is a major and continuous breeding objective owing to changing pest and disease scenarios. In response to climate change, an outbreak of new pathotypes and biotypes results in huge yield loss which directly impacts the economic stability and food security. The development of varieties with multiple resistance genes for a particular disease is the most effective approach to the combating mechanism against evolving pathogens and insects. Multiple resistance genes against blast (Pi54), bacterial leaf blight (xa5, xa13, Xa21), and brown plant hopper (Bph17, Bph3, bph2) were pyramided through marker-assisted forward breeding by attempting multiple crosses involving six parental lines. The F

resultsFour lines were selected from the population which carrying seven resistance genes against BL, BB, BPH with superior agronomic performance. Another line, x21302-239, harboring all the resistant genes and showing a resistant response in screening experiments for all three stresses, with marginal agronomic performance (single-plant yield: 33 g), can be utilized as a desirable donor to develop elite rice cultivars with multiple biotic stress resistance.

conclusionsHomozygous genetic background is more favorable for epidemic outbreak in a short period of time in comparison with the population of multiple genetic background. Since this complex genetic background disturbs the infectious cycle of the pathogen. So that a variety or a hybrid which developed from multiple parental lines are notable for their durable resistance than the monogenic resistance variety.
