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

Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) accounts for more than 90% of the world's cotton production and, as an allotetraploid, is a model plant for polyploid crop domestication. In the present study, we reported a complete telomere-to-telomere (T2T) genome assembly of Upland cotton accession Texas Marker-1 (T2T-TM-1), which has a total size of 2,299.6 Mb, and annotated 79,642 genes. Based on T2T-TM-1, interspecific centromere divergence was detected between the A- and D-subgenomes and their corresponding diploid progenitors. Centromere-associated repetitive sequences (CRCs) were found to be enriched for Gypsy-like retroelements. Centromere size expansion, repositioning and structure variations occurred post-polyploidization. It is interesting that CRC homologs were transferred from the diploid D-genome progenitor to the D-subgenome, invaded the A-subgenome and then underwent post-tetraploidization proliferation. This suggests an evolutionary advantage for the CRCs of the D-genome progenitor, presents a D-genome-adopted inheritance of centromere repeats after polyploidization and shapes the dynamic centromeric landscape during polyploidization in polyploid species.
