Genetic variation of Phoma sorghina isolates from Southern Africa and Texas.
Article in Folia microbiologica, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Genetic variability of Phoma sorghina, a ubiquitous facultative phytopathogen, was investigated on 41 isolates cultivated from surface-sterilized sorghum grains originating from South Africa and Texas; pearl millet isolates from Namibia were also included. Most of the isolates from Texas produced intense red pigments, especially on Czapek-Dox agar plates. Many African isolates formed conspicuous dark radial substrate hyphae with intercalated chlamydospores on oatmeal plates. Conidial dimensions and shape were very variable (mean lengths 4.5-5.7 microm). Haplotypes were defined based on 53 markers from banding patterns obtained with rep-PCR (primers: M13core, ERIC IR). The shared geographic origin was partially reflected in the clades of the haplotype phylogram. The values of G(ST) were intermediate; 16-37 % of the variation was found between the populations. Nm values of gene flow were 0.84-1.15. Average gene diversity H(E) was moderate (0.256). Sequences of ITS-rDNA were obtained from 21 isolates. Allele 1 was found in 9 isolates scattered throughout the clades, allele 2 occurred in 6 isolates (5 of them from the same clade), alleles 3 and 4 were shared by two isolates each and two isolates were unique. Alleles 1 and 2 were also found among highly related sequences from GenBank. All shared an 8-bp deletion near the 5' end of ITS2 that was not found in any other Phoma/Didymella species and which may be a typical marker for P. sorghina. Among related species, members of legume-associated Ascochyta/Didymella complex, Epicoccum spp., D. applanata and P. glomerata were found.
