Genetic differentiation of Mutator insertion polymorphisms and association with agronomic traits in waxy and common maize.
Article in Genes & genomics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundAs waxy maize is considered a key economic crop in Korea, an understanding of its genetic variation and differentiation is fundamental for the selective plant breeding. The maize genome is primarily composed of transposable elements, for which large and stable insertions generate variations that reflect selection during evolution.
objectivesThis study was to elucidate the genetic diversity based on the contribution of TEs and to investigate the effect of Mu transposition on the genetic divergence of waxy and common maize. We also performed an association analysis on these inbred lines to determine the Mu insertions associated with agronomic traits.
methodsIn this study, we utilized a Mutator-based transposon display method to study the genetic diversity and population structure of 40 waxy and 40 common inbred lines of maize in the Gangwon Agricultural Research and Extension Services collection at the Maize Research Institute.
resultsWe detected polymorphisms in 86.33% of 278 Mutator (Mu) anchored loci, reflecting the activity of the Mu element and its contribution to genetic variation. Common maize showed a substantial amount of genetic diversity, which was greater than that observed in waxy maize. Principal-coordinate and neighbor-joining cluster analyzes consistently supported the presence of two genetically distinct groups. However, the distribution of genetic variation within the populations was much higher than the genetic differentiation among the populations. To explore the contribution of the Mu element to phenotypic variation, we analyzed the associations with ten important agronomical traits. On the basis of the combined results from two models (QGLM and Q + KLM), we found significant associations between seven Mu loci and four different traits.
conclusionsThese results will assist waxy maize breeders in choosing parental lines and be useful for marker-assisted selection.
