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

Endoconidiophora resinifera (=Ceratocystis resinifera) is a blue-stain fungus that occurs on conifers. The data showed that the Endoconidiophora resinifera mitochondrial genome is one of the largest mitochondrial genomes (>220 kb) so far reported among members of the Ascomycota. An exceptional large number of introns (81) were noted and differences among the four strains were restricted to minor variations in intron numbers and a few indels and single nucleotide polymorphisms. The major differences among the four strains examined are due to size polymorphisms generated by the absence or presence of mitochondrial introns. Also, these mitochondrial genomes encode the largest cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 gene (47.5 kb) reported so far among the fungi. The large size for this gene again can be attributed to the large number of intron insertions. This study reports the first mitochondrial genome for the genus Endoconidiophora, previously members of this genus were assigned to Ceratocystis. The latter genus has recently undergone extensive taxonomic revisions and the mitochondrial genome might provide loci that could be applied as molecular markers assisting in the identification of taxa within this group of economically important fungi. The large mitochondrial genome also may provide some insight on mechanisms that can lead to mitochondrial genome expansion.
