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

Introduction: Soybean is an indispensable crop supplying protein and oil for humans and animals, and playing an essential role in global food security. Drought represses soybean seed germination, reducing biomass accumulation and even inhibiting yield. Methods: In order to dissect the genetic components underlying soybean drought tolerance during different development stage, a natural population containing 140 accessions was employed to evaluate seven drought tolerance-related traits under water-welled and drought stress conditions. Subsequently, genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted based on 150K single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers of "Zhongdouxin-1". And the drought tolerance coefficient of seven different traits were analyzed with seven GWAS models. Results: A total of 1807 significant SNPs were detected across 20 chromosome, including 569 SNPs for germination stage, and 1242 SNPs for seedling stage. Of 569 SNPs identified in germination stage, 354 SNPs on chromosomes 2, 7, 13, 14, and 17 accounting for 62.21%. Among 1242 SNPs found in seedling stage, 869 SNPs on chromosomes 11, 14, 15, 17 and 18 accounting for 69.97%. Moreover, among 1807 significant SNPs, 163 SNPs exhibited pleiotropic effects, of which 23 were located in exon, 21 in intron, 12 in 5'UTR or 3'UTR and 11 in upstream or downstream. Furthermore, 249 stable SNPs were detected by more than four GWAS models. According to these stable SNPs, RNA expression levels and gene annotations, four causal genes ( Discussion: Collectively, 249 stable SNPs, 163 pleiotropic SNPs and four candidate genes identified in present study provided promising molecular resources and reliable foundation for drought resistance improvement and marker-assisted selective breeding in soybean.
