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

Single-locus sporophytic self-incompatibility inhibits inbreeding in many members of the mustard family (Brassicaceae). To investigate the genetics of self-incompatibility in the wild mustard Leavenworthia alabamica, diallel crosses were conducted between full siblings. Patterns of incompatibility were consistent with the action of single-locus sporophytic self-incompatibility. DNA sequences related to S-locus receptor kinase (SRK), the gene involved in self-pollen recognition in mustards, were cloned and sequenced. A single sequence with high identity to SRK and several other groups of sequences (Lal1, Lal2, Lal3, Lal8, and Lal14) were isolated from L. alabamica. We propose that either Lal2 sequences are divergent alleles of SRK or Lal2 is in tight linkage with SRK because (1) Lal2 alleles cosegregate with S-alleles inferred from dialleles in all 97 cases tested in five families; (2) Lal2 sequences are highly diverse at both synonymous and nonsynonymous sites and exhibit patterns of selective constraint similar to those observed at SRK in Brassica and Arabidopsis; and (3) transcripts of one Lal2 allele were detected in leaves and the styles of open flowers, but were most abundant in the stigmas of maturing buds. We discuss the utility of the S-linked polymorphism at Lal2 for studying the evolutionary forces acting on self-incompatibility in Leavenworthia.
