Global deceleration of gene evolution following recent genome hybridizations in fungi.
Article in Genome research, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Polyploidization events such as whole-genome duplication and inter-species hybridization are major evolutionary forces that shape genomes. Although long-term effects of polyploidization have been well-characterized, early molecular evolutionary consequences of polyploidization remain largely unexplored. Here, we report the discovery of two recent and independent genome hybridizations within a single clade of a fungal genus, Trichosporon Comparative genomic analyses revealed that redundant genes are experiencing decelerations, not accelerations, of evolutionary rates. We identified a relationship between gene conversion and decelerated evolution suggesting that gene conversion may improve the genome stability of young hybrids by restricting gene functional divergences. Furthermore, we detected large-scale gene losses from transcriptional and translational machineries that indicate a global compensatory mechanism against increased gene dosages. Overall, our findings illustrate counteracting mechanisms during an early phase of post-genome hybridization and fill a critical gap in existing theories on genome evolution.
