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

Advances in precision gene editing have enabled the rapid domestication of wild crop relatives, a process known as neo-domestication. During domestication, breeding rice for maximum productivity under optimal growth conditions reduced genetic diversity, eliminating variants for stress tolerance and grain nutrients. Wild rice varieties have rich genetic diversity, including variants for disease resistance, stress tolerance, and grain nutritional quality. For example, the grain of pigmented wild rice has abundant antioxidants (anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins, and flavonoids), but low yield, poor plant architecture, and long life cycle limit its cultivation. In this review, we address the neo-domestication of wild pigmented rice, focusing on recent progress, CRISPR-Cas editing toolboxes, selection of key candidate genes for domestication, identifying species with superior potential via generating genomic and multi-omics resources, efficient crop transformation methods and highlight strategies for the promotion and application pigmented rice. We also address critical outstanding questions and potential solutions to enable efficient neo-domestication of wild pigmented rice and thus enhance food security and nutrition.
