Origin and transition of sex determination mechanisms in a gynogenetic hexaploid fish.

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
Most vertebrates reproduce sexually, and plastic sex determination mechanisms including genotypic sex determination (GSD) and environmental sex determination (ESD) have been extensively revealed. However, why sex determination mechanisms evolve diversely and how they correlate with diverse reproduction strategies remain largely unclear. Here, we utilize the superiority of a hexaploid gibel carp (Carassius gibelio) that is able to reproduce by unisexual gynogenesis and contains a rare but diverse proportion of males to investigate these puzzles. A total of 2248 hexaploid specimens were collected from 34 geographic wild populations throughout mainland China, in which 24 populations were revealed to contain 186 males with various incidences ranging from 1.2 to 26.5%. Subsequently, the proportion of temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD) was revealed to be positively correlated to average annual temperature in wild populations, and male incidence in lab gynogenetic progenies was demonstrated to increase with the increasing of larval rearing temperature. Meanwhile, extra microchromosomes were confirmed to play genotypic male determination role as previously reported. Thereby, GSD and TSD were found to coexist in gibel carp, and the proportions of GSD were observed to be much higher than that of TSD in sympatric wild populations. Our findings uncover a potential new mechanism in the evolution of sex determination system in polyploid vertebrates with unisexual gynogenesis ability, and also reveal a possible association of sex determination mechanism transition between TSD and GSD and reproduction mode transition between unisexual gynogenesis and bisexual reproduction.
