Relationship between physical and genetic distances along the zebra finch Z chromosome.

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
Nine bacterial artificial chromosomes containing genes linked to the Z chromosome of the zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) were localized using FISH on synaptonemal complex spreads. Their positions were correlated with those previously reported on the mitotic Z chromosome, showing a linear relationship between positions along the mitotic chromosome and its synaptonemal complex. Distances in cM between the genes were calculated using a cytological map of the crossing-over based on the distribution of MLH1 foci along the ZZ synaptonemal complex (MLH1-cM map). It is shown that physical and genetic distances lack a linear relationship along most of the chromosome length, due to clustering of crossover events around the telomeres. This relationship departs strongly from that observed in the chicken Z chromosome and reflects the existence of different recombination rates and patterns among birds in spite of wide genomic conservation.
