Genomic variations and signatures of selection in Wuhua yellow chicken.
Article in PloS one, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Wuhua yellow chicken (WHYC) is an important traditional yellow-feathered chicken from China, which is characterized by its white tail feathers, white flight feathers, and strong disease resistance. However, the genomic basis of these unique traits associated with WHYC is poorly understood. In this study, whole-genome resequencing was performed with an average coverage of 20.77-fold to investigate heritable variation and identify selection signals in WHYC. Reads were mapped onto the chicken reference genome (Galgal5) with a coverage of 85.95%. After quality control, 11,953,471 single nucleotide polymorphisms and 1,069,574 insertion/deletions were obtained. In addition, 41,408 structural variants and 33,278 copy number variants were found. Comparative genomic analysis of WHYC and other yellow-feathered chicken breeds showed that selected regions were enriched in genes involved in transport and catabolism, immune system, infectious diseases, signal transduction, and signaling molecules and interactions. Several genes associated with disease resistance were also identified, including IFNA, IFNB, CD86, IL18, IL11RA, VEGFC, and ATG10. Furthermore, our results suggest that PMEL and TYRP1 may contribute to the white feather coloring in WHYC. These findings can improve our understanding of the genetic characteristics of WHYC and may contribute to future breed improvement.
