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

High-density genetic maps are essential for mapping QTL, improving genome assembly, comparative genomics, and studying sex chromosome evolution. The northern snakehead (Channa argus) is an economically important foodfish species with significant sexual dimorphism, where the males grow much faster and bigger than the females. However, to date, the sex determination pattern is still not clear, limiting identification of sex chromosomes, even sex determination genes and development of monosex populations that are valuable for both sex evolution of vertebrates and aquaculture practices. Here, a sex-averaged map and two sex-specific genetic maps were constructed with 2974, 2323, and 2338 SNPs, respectively. Little difference was observed in the pattern of sex-specific recombination between female- and male-specific genetic maps. Genome scan identified a major locus for sex determination at LG16. Females and males are, respectively, homogametic and heterogametic, suggesting an XY sex determination system for this species. By resequencing genomes, InDels in the sex-associated QTL region were discovered and used for developing sex-specific PCR assays for fast sexing of snakehead. These high-density genetic maps provide useful resources for future genomic studies in snakehead and its related species. The PCR assays for sexing are of importance in developing all male populations for aquaculture.
