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

Ascochyta blight, caused by the necrotrophic fungus Ascochyta rabiei, is a major threat to chickpea production worldwide. Resistance genes with broad-spectrum protection against virulent A. rabiei strains are required to secure chickpea yield in the US Northern Great Plains. Here, we performed a genome-wide association (GWA) study to discover novel sources of genetic variation for Ascochyta blight resistance using a worldwide germplasm collection of 219 chickpea lines. Ascochyta blight resistance was evaluated at 3, 9, 11, 13, and 14 days post-inoculation. Multiple GWA models revealed eight quantitative trait nucleotides (QTNs) across timepoints mapped to chromosomes 1, 3, 4, 6, and 7. Of these eight QTNs, only CM001767.1_28299946 on Chr 4 had previously been reported. QTN CM001766.1_36967269 on Chr 3 explained up to 33% of the variation in disease severity and was mapped to an exonic region of the pentatricopeptide repeat-containing protein At4g02750-like gene (LOC101506608). This QTN was confirmed across all models and timepoints. A total of 153 candidate genes, including genes with roles in pathogen recognition and signaling, cell wall biosynthesis, oxidative burst, and regulation of DNA transcription, were observed surrounding QTN-targeted regions. Further gene expression analysis on the QTNs identified in this study will provide insights into defense-related genes that can be further incorporated into breeding of new chickpea cultivars to minimize fungicide applications required for successful chickpea production in the US Northern Great Plains.
