Quantification of maize brace root formation after vertical stalk displacement.
Article in microPublication biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Maize brace roots develop from aboveground stem nodes in both upright and vertically displaced stalks. The cues that trigger brace root development after displacement are unknown. Possibilities include disturbance of the belowground roots, gravity, moisture, physical interaction, or node anatomical changes. We show that brace root formation occurs at all growth stages, with more nodes producing brace roots when plants are displaced at later growth stages. This occurs with the underground roots intact, without moisture accumulation and without physical interaction. We propose that the formation of brace roots after vertical stalk displacement is most likely due to gravity or anatomical changes at the node.
