Comparative transcriptome analysis of two reproductive modes in Adiantum reniforme var. sinense targeted to explore possible mechanism of apogamy.
Article in BMC genetics, 2019. 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
backgroundApogamy is a unique asexual reproduction in the ferns, in which somatic cells of gametophytes go through dedifferentiation and then differentiate into haploid sporophytes bypassing fertilization. Restricted to the lack of genomic information, molecular mechanisms of apogamy have remained unclear. Comparative transcriptome analysis was conducted at six stages between sexual reproduction and apogamy in the fern Adiantum reniforme var. sinense, in an effort to identify genes and pathways that might initiate the asexual reproduction.
resultsApproximately 928 million high-quality clean reads were assembled into 264,791 unigenes with an average length of 615 bp. A total of 147,865 (55.84%) unigenes were successfully annotated. Differential genes expression analysis indicated that transcriptional regulation was more active in the early stage of apogamy compared to sexual reproduction. Further comparative analysis of the enriched pathways between the early stages of the two reproductive modes demonstrated that starch and sucrose metabolism pathway responsible for cell wall was only significantly enriched in asexual embryonic cell initiation. Furthermore, regulation of plant hormone related genes was more vigorous in apogamy initiation.
conclusionThese findings would be useful for revealing the initiation of apogamy and further understanding of the mechanisms related to asexual reproduction.
