Estimation of long-term effective population sizes through the history of durum wheat using microsatellite data.
Article in Genetics, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 32 papers.
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
Estimation of long-term effective population size (N(e)) from polymorphism data alone requires an independent knowledge of mutation rate. Microsatellites provide the opportunity to estimate N(e) because their high mutation rate can be estimated from observed mutations. We used this property to estimate N(e) in allotetraploid wheat Triticum turgidum at four stages of its history since its domestication. We estimated the mutation rate of 30 microsatellite loci. Allele-specific mutation rates mu were predicted from the number of repeats of the alleles. Effective population sizes were calculated from the diversity parameter theta = 4N(e)mu. We demonstrated from simulations that the unbiased estimator of theta based on Nei's heterozygosity is the most appropriate for estimating N(e) because of a small variance and a relative robustness to variations in the mutation model compared to other estimators. We found a N(e) of 32,500 individuals with a 95% confidence interval of [20,739; 45,991] in the wild ancestor of wheat, 12,000 ([5790; 19,300]) in the domesticated form, 6000 ([2831; 9556]) in landraces, and 1300 ([689; 2031]) in recent improved varieties. This decrease illustrates the successive bottlenecks in durum wheat. No selective effect was detected on our loci, despite a complete loss of polymorphism for two of them.
