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

backgroundGenome shuffling (GS) is a widely adopted methodology for the evolutionary engineering of desirable traits in industrially relevant microorganisms. We have previously used genome shuffling to generate a strain of

resultsWhole population whole-genome sequencing was used to survey mutations selected during the experiment and extract allele frequency time series. Using growth curve assays on single point mutants and backcrossed derivatives, we explored the genetic architecture of the selected phenotype and detected examples of epistasis. Our results reveal cohorts of strongly correlated mutations, suggesting prevalent genetic hitchhiking and the presence of pre-existing founder mutations. From the patterns of apparent selection and the results of direct phenotypic assays, our results identify key driver mutations and deleterious hitchhikers.

conclusionsWe use these data to propose a model of inhibitor tolerance in our GS mutants. Our results also suggest a role for compensatory evolution and epistasis in our genome shuffling experiment and illustrate the impact of historical contingency on the outcomes of evolutionary engineering.
