The genome sequence and insights into the immunogenetics of the bananaquit (Passeriformes: Coereba flaveola).
Article in Immunogenetics, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Avian genomics, especially of non-model species, is in its infancy relative to mammalian genomics. Here, we describe the sequencing, assembly, and annotation of a new avian genome, that of the bananaquit Coereba flaveola (Passeriformes: Thraupidae). We produced ∼30-fold coverage of the genome with an assembly size of ca. 1.2 Gb, including approximately 16,500 annotated genes. Passerine birds, such as the bananaquit, are commonly infected by avian malarial parasites (Haemosporida), which presumably drive adaptive evolution of immunogenetic loci within the host genome. In the context of our research on the distribution of avian Haemosporida, we specifically characterized immune loci, including toll-like receptor (TLR) and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes. Additionally, we identified novel molecular markers in the form of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), both genome-wide and within identified immune loci. We discovered nine TLR genes and four MHC genes and identified five other TLR- or MHC- associated genes. Genome-wide, over 6 million high-quality SNPs were annotated, including 568 within TLR genes and 102 in MHC genes. This newly described genome and immune characterization expands the knowledge base for avian genomics and phylogenetics and allows for immune genotyping in the bananaquit, providing tools for the investigation of host-parasite coevolution.
