Comparative Analysis of Miscanthus and Saccharum Reveals a Shared Whole-Genome Duplication but Different Evolutionary Fates.
Article in The Plant cell, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 39 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
Multiple polyploidizations with divergent consequences in the grass subtribe Saccharinae provide a singular opportunity to study in situ adaptation of a genome to the duplicated state, heretofore known primarily from paleogenomics. We show that allopolyploidy in a common Miscanthus-Saccharum ancestor ∼3.8 to 4.6 million years ago closely coincides in time with their divergence from the Sorghum lineage. Subsequent Saccharum-specific autopolyploidy may have created pseudo-paralogous chromosome groups with random pairing within a group but infrequent pairing between groups. High chromosome number may reduce differentiation among Saccharum pseudo-paralogs by increasing opportunities for recombinations, with the lower chromosome numbers of Miscanthus favoring the return to disomic inheritance. The widespread tendency of plant chromosome numbers to recursively return to a narrow range following genome duplication appears to be occurring now in Saccharum spontaneum based on rich polymorphism for chromosome number among genotypes, with past reductions indicated by condensations of two ancestral chromosomes in Miscanthus (now n = 19) and perhaps as many as 10 in the Narenga-Sclerostachya clade (n = 15).
