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

MAIN

conclusionNatural 2n female gametes and transmission of parental heterozygosity by natural 2n gametes in Populus tomentosa are reported for the first time, which provides a new approach to polyploid breeding. Naturally occurring 2n pollen is widespread in Populus tomentosa and plays an important role in polyploid breeding. However, the competitiveness of 2n pollen is lower than that of haploid pollen during pollination and fertilization, so 2n pollen is less efficient at fertilizing haploid female gametes to produce polyploids. In theory, polyploids can also be obtained when 2n female gametes are fertilized by haploid pollen. Thus, the question becomes whether natural 2n female gametes exist in P. tomentosa, which can be answered by examining the genetic composition of natural 2n gametes. In this study, the origin of 87 triploids from the hybrid combination "X-2 × Z-5" was identified by SSR markers and 21% of natural 2n gametes were found to originate from female parents. Four SSR loci with low recombination rates were used to identify the genetic composition of natural 2n gametes. The results showed that the genetic composition of 2n female gametes was mainly characterized by SDR, while 2n male gametes were mainly produced by FDR. Moreover, the transmission of parental heterozygosity by natural 2n gametes, which is significantly different between female and male parents in FDR and SDR types, was analysed using 42 SSR primers. Here, we report naturally occurring 2n female gametes for the first time in P. tomentosa and reveal the genetic constitution and transmitted parental heterozygosity of these gametes. Our results provide a foundation for theoretical research into 2n gametes and their application in new polyploid breeding strategies.
