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

Natural hybridization plays important roles in plant evolution and speciation. In this study, we sequenced ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (nrITS), four low-copy nuclear genes (Dbr1, SOS4a, SOS4b and PCRF1) and the chloroplast intergenic spacer trnV-trnM to test the hypothesis of hybridization between two species of Phyllagathis and Sporoxeia (Sonerileae/Dissochaeteae, Melastomataceae). Our results provided compelling evidence for the hybridization hypothesis. All hybrid individuals sampled were first-generation hybrids. The failure of flower production in the F1 hybrid individuals may work as the barrier preventing later-generation hybridization or backcross. Analysis of the chloroplast trnV-trnM sequences showed that the hybridization is bidirectional with S. petelotii as the major maternal parent. Several factors, such as sympatry, similar habitat preference, overlapping flowering season and shared pollinators, might have contributed to this hybridization event. The "intergeneric" hybridization reported in this study suggests close relationship between P. longicalcarata and S. petelotii.
