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

Drought threatens global crop yields, and common oat, a vital nutritional source for food and feed, is particularly constrained in the semi‑arid regions where it is widely cultivated. Here, we report two high-quality genome assemblies for drought-resilient (Borris37) and drought-sensitive (XymC06) oat accessions with distinct seedling survival rates and genome sizes of 10.92 Gb and 10.96 Gb, and construct comprehensive landscapes of insertion‑deletions (InDels) and structural variants (SVs). Integrating population-level genomic, transcriptomic and phenotypic (seedling survival rate), we demonstrate that InDels and SVs underpin divergent drought resilience and identify 52 candidate genes associated with drought resistance whose expression is significantly modulated by these variants. Borris37 accumulates 36 favorable alleles of these genes. An InDel in the AsNF-YB3 promoter enhances binding to AsARF1, upregulating AsNF‑YB3 under drought, and overexpression of AsNF‑YB3 reduces ROS accumulation. Our findings provide resources and targets for drought‑resistance breeding in oat, thereby supporting global food security.
