Chromosome-level reference genome for North American bison (Bison bison) and variant database aids in identifying albino mutation.
Article in G3 (Bethesda, Md.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
We developed a highly contiguous chromosome-level reference genome for North American bison to provide a platform to evaluate the conservation, ecological, evolutionary, and population genomics of this species. Generated from a F1 hybrid between a North American bison dam and a domestic cattle bull, completeness and contiguity exceed that of other published bison genome assemblies. To demonstrate the utility for genome-wide variant frequency estimation, we compiled a genomic variant database consisting of 3 true albino bison and 44 wild-type pelage color bison. Through the examination of genomic variants fixed in the albino cohort and absent in the controls, we identified a nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mutation on chromosome 29 in exon 3 of the tyrosinase gene (c.1114C>T). A TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assay was developed to genotype this SNP in a total of 283 animals across 29 herds. This assay confirmed the absence of homozygous variants in all animals except 7 true albino bison included in this study. In addition, the only heterozygous animals identified were 2 wild-type pelage color dams of albino offspring. Therefore, we propose that this new high-quality bison genome assembly and incipient variant database provides a highly robust and informative resource for genomics investigations for this iconic North American species.
