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

Centromeres and telomeres are obvious markers on chromosomes but their location on genetic maps is difficult to determine, which hampers many basic and applied research programmes. In this study, we used the characteristic distribution of five Brassica repeated sequences to generate physically anchored molecular markers tentatively tagging Brassica centromeres (84 markers) and telomeres (31 markers). These markers were mapped to the existing oilseed rape genetic map. Clusters of centromere-related loci were observed on 14 linkage groups; in addition to previous reports, we could thus provide information about the most likely position of centromeres on 17 of the 19 B. napus linkage groups. The location of centromeres on linkage groups usually matches their position on chromosomes and coincides with sites of evolutionary breakage between chromosomes. Most telomere sequence-derived markers mapped interstitially or in the proximity of centromeres; this result echoes previous reports on many eukaryote genomes and may reflect different forms of chromosome evolution. Seven telomere sequence-derived markers were located at the outermost positions of seven linkage groups and therefore probably tagged telomeres.
