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

Selection of new lines with high salinity tolerance allows for economically feasible production of tilapias in brackish water areas. Mapping QTLs and identifying the markers linked to salinity-tolerant traits are the first steps in the improvement of the tolerance in tilapia through marker-assisted selection techniques. By using QTL-seq strategy and linkage-based analysis, two significant QTL intervals (chrLG4 and chrLG18) on salinity-tolerant traits were firstly identified in the Nile tilapia. Fine mapping with microsatellite and SNP markers suggested a major QTL region that located at 23.0 Mb of chrLG18 and explained 79% of phenotypic variation with a LOD value of 95. Expression analysis indicated that at least 10 genes (e.g., LACTB2, KINH, NCOA2, DIP2C, LARP4B, PEX5R, and KCNJ9) near or within the QTL interval were significantly differentially expressed in intestines, brains, or gills under 10, 15, or 20 ppt challenges. Our findings suggest that QTL-seq can be effectively utilized in QTL mapping of salinity-tolerant traits in fish. The identified major QTL is a promising locus to improve our knowledge on the genetic mechanism of salinity tolerance in tilapia.
