Cryptic species diversity in a widespread neotropical tree genus: The case of Cedrela odorata.
Article in American journal of botany, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
premiseReconciling the use of taxonomy to partition morphological variation and describe genetic divergence within and among closely related species is a persistent challenge in phylogenetics. We reconstructed phylogenetic relationships among Cedrela odorata (Meliaceae) and five closely allied species to test the genetic basis for the current model of species delimitation in this economically valuable and threatened genus.
methodsWe prepared a nuclear species tree with the program SNPhylo and 16,000 single-nucleotide polymorphisms from 168 Cedrela specimens. Based on clades present and ancestral patterns ADMIXTURE, we designed nine species delimitation models and compared each model to current taxonomy with Bayes factor delimitation. Timing of major lineage divergences was estimated with the program SNAPP.
resultsThe resulting analysis revealed that modern C. odorata evolved from two genetically distinct ancestral sources. All species delimitation models tested better fit the data than the model representing current taxonomic delimitation. Models with the greatest marginal likelihoods separated Mesoamerican C. odorata and South American C. odorata into two species and lumped C. angustifolia and C. montana as a single species. We estimated that Cedrela diversified in South America within the last 19 million years following one or more dispersal events from Mesoamerican lineages.
conclusionsOur analyses show that the present taxonomic understanding within the genus obscures divergent lineages in C. odorata due in part to morphological differentiation and taxonomic distinctions that are not predictably associated with genetic divergence. A more accurate application of taxonomy to C. odorata and related species may aid in its conservation, management, and restoration efforts.
