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

For almost a decade the combination of whole genome sequencing with experimental evolution (Evolve and Resequence, E&R; Turner, Stewart, Fields, Rice, & Tarone, ) has been used to study adaptation in outcrossing organisms. However, complications caused by inversions and hitchhiking variants have prevented this powerful approach from living up to its potential. In this issue of Molecular Ecology, Michalak, Kang, Schou, Garner, and Loeschke (), provide an important step ahead by using a population of Drosophila melanogaster devoid of segregating inversions to identify the genetic basis of resistance to five environmental stressors. They further address the challenge of hitchhiking variants by reconstructing selected haplotype blocks. While it is apparent that the haplotype block reconstruction needs further refinements, their work underpins the potential of E&R studies in Drosophila to address fundamental questions in evolutionary biology.
