1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Next-generation sequencing technologies provide opportunities to ascertain the genetic basis of phenotypic differences, even in the closely related cultivars via detection of large amount of DNA polymorphisms. In this study, we performed whole-genome re-sequencing of two mei cultivars with contrasting tree architecture. 75.87 million 100 bp pair-end reads were generated, with 92 % coverage of the genome. Re-sequencing data of two former upright mei cultivars were applied for detecting DNA polymorphisms, since we were more interested in variations conferring weeping trait. Applying stringent parameters, 157,317 mutual single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 15,064 mutual insertions-deletions (InDels) were detected and found unevenly distributed within and among the mei chromosomes, which lead to the discovery of 220 high-density, 463 low-density SNP regions together with 80 high-density InDel regions. Additionally, 322 large-effect SNPs and 433 large-effect InDels were detected, and 10.09 % of the SNPs were observed in coding regions. 5.25 % SNPs in coding regions resulted in non-synonymous changes. Ninety SNPs were chosen randomly for validation using high-resolution melt analysis. 93.3 % of the candidate SNPs contained the predicted SNPs. Pfam analysis was further conducted to better understand SNP effects on gene functions. DNA polymorphisms of two known QTL loci conferring weeping trait and their functional effect were also analyzed thoroughly. This study highlights promising functional markers for molecular breeding and a whole-genome genetic basis of weeping trait in mei.
