Genetic Dissection of Adaptation Traits in Apricot Through GWAS and QTL Analyses.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Understanding the genetic basis of adaptation traits including chilling requirements, flowering and fruiting is essential for developing apricot cultivars adapted to changing climatic conditions and for extending the apricot production calendar. The objective of this study is to detect and finely identify marker-trait associations linked to these adaptation traits including chilling requirements in apricot, using an R-based workflow developed with agroclimatic functions. In this study, high-density GBS-based linkage maps previously developed for two biparental populations ('Bergeron' × 'Currot' and 'Goldrich' × 'Currot') were used to analyze the genetic basis of key adaptation traits, including chilling requirement (CR), blooming date (BD), fruit development period (FDP), and ripening time (RT), through Genome-Wide Association (GWAS) and Quantitative Trait Locus (QTL) analyses. Phenotypic evaluation over eight years revealed wide variability across genotypes and strong correlations between CR and BD, particularly when using Chill Portions as a metric. Genome-wide association and QTL mapping consistently identified major loci on linkage group (LG) 1 for BD and CR, and on LG4 for FDP and RT, explaining up to 59% of phenotypic variance.
