Whole-genome sequencing identifies potential candidate genes for egg production traits in laying ducks (Anas platyrhynchos).
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. 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
Egg production traits are economically important in laying ducks. Genetic molecular mechanisms and candidate genes underlying these traits remain unclear. In this study, whole genome variants were identified through whole-genome resequencing using three high-egg producing (HEN) and three low-egg producing (LEN) laying ducks. The gene ontology (GO) terms and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genome (KEGG) pathways for the genes of common differential variants between HEN and LEN ducks were determined. Frizzled class receptor 6 (FZD6) was further genotyped using the Sequenom MassARRAY iPLEX platform. The association of FZD6 gene polymorphisms with 73 egg production and weight traits in 329 female ducks were estimated. A total of 65,535 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 4,702 indels were identified across the genome. Fourteen GO terms and 14 KEGG pathways were determined for the genes of common differential variants, including MAPK signaling, Wnt signaling, melanogenesis and calcium signaling pathways, which are key functional pathways for poultry egg production reported in previous reports. Further analysis showed that 27 SNPs of FZD6 were associated with three early egg production of duck and egg weight traits, including egg production at 17 weeks (EP17), 18 weeks (EP18) and 19 weeks (EP19) and egg weight at 59 weeks (EW59). The FZD6 should be considered a novel candidate gene for egg production traits in laying ducks.
