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

Most eukaryotic centromeres contain long arrays of tandem repeats, with unit lengths of 150-300 bp. We searched for such repeats in the functional centromeres of the model legume Medicago truncatula (Medicago) accession Jemalong A17. To this end three repeats, MtR1, MtR2 and MtR3, were identified in 20 Mb of a low-pass, whole genome sequencing data set generated by a random shotgun approach. The nucleotide sequence composition, genomic organization and abundance of these repeats were characterized. Fluorescent in situ hybridization of these repeats on chromosomes at meiosis I showed that only the MtR3 repeat, encompassing stretches of 450 kb to more than 1.0 Mb, is located in the functional portion of all eight centromeres. MtR1 and MtR2 occupy distinct regions in pericentromeric heterochromatin. We also studied the presence and distribution of MtRs in Medicago accession R108-1, a genotype with a genome that is 20% smaller than that of Jemalong A17. We determined that while MtR3 is also centromeric on all pachytene bivalents in R108-1, MtR1 and MtR2 are not present in the R108 genome.
