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

In Neurospora crassa the ability of an ectopic gene-sized duplication to induce repeat-induced point mutation (RIP) in its target gene was suppressed in crosses that were heterozygous for another larger chromosome segment duplication. Specifically, the frequency of RIP in the erg-3 gene due to a 1.3-kb duplication was reduced if the chromosome segment duplications Dp(IIIR > [I;II]) AR17, Dp(VIR > IIIR) OY329, or Dp(IVR > VII) S1229 were present in either the same or the other parental nucleus of the premeiotic dikaryon. We suggest that the larger duplications act as sinks to titrate the RIP machinery away from the smaller duplication. In contrast, RIP efficiency was relatively unaffected in comparably unproductive interspecies crosses with N. intermedia and N. tetrasperma. These findings offer a novel explanation for the observed persistence of the transposable element Tad in only a subset of Neurospora strains.
