Genome sequencing of the NIES Cyanobacteria collection with a focus on the heterocyst-forming clade.
Article in DNA research : an international journal for rapid publication of reports on genes and genomes, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Cyanobacteria are a diverse group of Gram-negative prokaryotes that perform oxygenic photosynthesis. Cyanobacteria have been used for research on photosynthesis and have attracted attention as a platform for biomaterial/biofuel production. Cyanobacteria are also present in almost all habitats on Earth and have extensive impacts on global ecosystems. Given their biological, economical, and ecological importance, the number of high-quality genome sequences for Cyanobacteria strains is limited. Here, we performed genome sequencing of Cyanobacteria strains in the National Institute for Environmental Studies microbial culture collection in Japan. We sequenced 28 strains that can form a heterocyst, a morphologically distinct cell that is specialized for fixing nitrogen, and 3 non-heterocystous strains. Using Illumina sequencing of paired-end and mate-pair libraries with in silico finishing, we constructed highly contiguous assemblies. We determined the phylogenetic relationship of the sequenced genome assemblies and found potential difficulties in the classification of certain heterocystous clades based on morphological observation. We also revealed a bias on the sequenced strains by the phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene including unsequenced strains. Genome sequencing of Cyanobacteria strains deposited in worldwide culture collections will contribute to understanding the enormous genetic and phenotypic diversity within the phylum Cyanobacteria.
