Chromosome-Scale Genome Assembly of Gilia yorkii Enables Genetic Mapping of Floral Traits in an Interspecies Cross.
Article in Genome biology and evolution, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Substantial morphological variation in land plants remains inaccessible to genetic analysis because current models lack variation in important ecological and agronomic traits. The genus Gilia was historically a model for biosystematics studies and includes variation in morphological traits that are poorly understood at the genetic level. We assembled a chromosome-scale reference genome of G. yorkii and used it to investigate genome evolution in the Polemoniaceae. We performed QTL (quantitative trait loci) mapping in a G. yorkii×G. capitata interspecific population for traits related to inflorescence architecture and flower color. The genome assembly spans 2.75 Gb of the estimated 2.80-Gb genome, with 96.7% of the sequence contained in the nine largest chromosome-scale scaffolds matching the haploid chromosome number. Gilia yorkii experienced at least one round of whole-genome duplication shared with other Polemoniaceae after the eudicot paleohexaploidization event. We identified QTL linked to variation in inflorescence architecture and petal color, including a candidate for the major flower color QTL-a tandem duplication of flavanol 3',5'-hydroxylase. Our results demonstrate the utility of Gilia as a forward genetic model for dissecting the evolution of development in plants including the causal loci underlying inflorescence architecture transitions.
