Cyanase-independent utilization of cyanate as a nitrogen source in ascomycete yeasts.
Article in World journal of microbiology & biotechnology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
The occurrence of putative cyanases (EC 4.2.1.104) in the genomes of yeasts belonging to the ascomycete sub-phyla Saccharomycotina (budding yeasts) and Taphrinomycotina (fission yeasts) was investigated. Predicted gene products displaying significant sequence similarity to previously characterized cyanases were identified in the genomes of the budding yeast Lipomyces starkeyi and the fission yeasts Protomyces lactucaedebilis, Saitoella complicata and Taphrina deformans. Li. starkeyi and Sai. complicata were further tested for their ability to utilize cyanate as a nitrogen source. However, neither species displayed significant growth when cyanate was provided as the sole nitrogen source. Cyanate utilization assays of 15 yeast species whose genomes lack detectable cyanase homologs unexpectedly resulted in consistently strong growth in six species as well as variable growth in an additional three species. The present study represents the first known report of cyanase-independent utilization of cyanate as a nitrogen source in ascomycete yeasts. Implications of cyanate utilization for the ecological niches occupied by ascomycete yeasts are discussed.
