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

Almond has a self-incompatibility system that is controlled by an S locus consisting of the S-RNase gene and an unidentified "pollen S gene." An almond cultivar "Jeffries," a somaclonal mutant of "Nonpareil" (S(c)S(d)), has a dysfunctional S(c) haplotype both in pistil and pollen. Immunoblot and genomic Southern blot analyses detected no S(c) haplotype-specific signal in Jeffries. Southern blot showed that Jeffries has an extra copy of the S(d) haplotype. These results indicate that at least two mutations had occurred to generate Jeffries: (1) deletion of the S(c) haplotype and (2) duplication of the S(d) haplotype. To analyze the extent of the deletion in Jeffries and gain insight into the physical limit of the S locus region, approximately 200 kbp of a cosmid contig for the S(c) haplotype was constructed. Genomic Southern blot analyses showed that the deletion in Jeffries extends beyond the region covered by the contig. Most cosmid end probes, except those near the S(c)-RNase gene, cross-hybridized with DNA fragments from different S haplotypes. This suggests that regions away from the S(c)-RNase gene can recombine between different S haplotypes, implying that the cosmid contig extends to the borders of the S locus.
