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

Satellite DNA, a class of repetitive sequences forming long arrays of tandemly repeated units, represents substantial portions of many plant genomes yet remains poorly characterized due to various methodological obstacles. Here we show that the genome of the field bean (Vicia faba, 2n = 12), a long-established model for cytogenetic studies in plants, contains a diverse set of satellite repeats, most of which remained concealed until their present investigation. Using next-generation sequencing combined with novel bioinformatics tools, we reconstructed consensus sequences of 23 novel satellite repeats representing 0.008-2.700% of the genome and mapped their distribution on chromosomes. We found that in addition to typical satellites with monomers hundreds of nucleotides long, V. faba contains a large number of satellite repeats with unusually long monomers (687-2033 bp), which are predominantly localized in pericentromeric regions. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation with CenH3 antibody, we revealed an extraordinary diversity of centromeric satellites, consisting of seven repeats with chromosome-specific distribution. We also found that in spite of their different nucleotide sequences, all centromeric repeats are replicated during mid-S phase, while most other satellites are replicated in the first part of late S phase, followed by a single family of FokI repeats representing the latest replicating chromatin.
