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

Maize is a critical staple crop globally. Enhancing maize yield per unit area is essential to meet the rising food demand, and increasing planting density has emerged as a key strategy to achieve this goal. Optimizing plant architecture, a strategy central to the "Green Revolution", is crucial for maize's adaption to high-density planting. This study reports genome assemblies of two maize inbred lines, D132 and Yu82, characterized by significantly different plant architectures. By leveraging advanced sequencing technologies, we assembled the genomes of D132 and Yu82, achieving total lengths of 2,166.50 Mb and 2,193.33 Mb, respectively, and identifying 40,951 and 40,935 protein-coding genes. These genome data provide valuable resources for in-depth understanding of the genetic mechanisms underlying maize plant architecture and hold promise for contributing to maize breeding improvement.
