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

Mutation rates and spectra vary between species and among populations. Hybridization can contribute to this variation, but its role remains poorly understood. Estimating mutation rates requires controlled conditions where the effect of natural selection can be minimized. One way to achieve this is through mutation accumulation experiments coupled with genome sequencing. Here, we investigate 400 mutation accumulation lines initiated from 11 genotypes spanning intralineage, interlineage, and interspecific crosses of the yeasts Saccharomyces paradoxus and S. cerevisiae and propagated for 770 generations. We find significant differences in mutation rates and spectra among crosses, which are not related to the level of divergence of parental strains but are specific to some genotype combinations. Differences in number of generations and departures from neutrality play a minor role, whereas polyploidy and loss of heterozygosity impact mutation rates in some of the hybrid crosses in an opposite way.
