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

The wide range of tools and methods available to plant breeders today has the potential to increase the gain of selection. However, they also result in numerous complex choices in the design of efficient crossing and selection strategies. Computer simulations are essential to optimize breeding programs that are multi-year, high-effort endeavors and to compare process efficiencies without going through field experiments, thus saving both time and field resources. In addition, computer simulations are key to evaluate statistical properties of new methods and procedures as well as to exploit crop growth models and G*E interactions. The first two areas are discussed in great detail in our review. Furthermore, the review evaluates the capabilities, assumptions, and limitations of all publicly available simulation tools highlighting their relevance for the different areas of application.
