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

Cyberlindnera jadinii is a nonmodel yeast species recognized for its robust growth under diverse stress conditions, making it a promising candidate for various industrial applications. Here, we performed genome sequencing for genetic analysis and high-throughput phenotypic assays to examine 20 wild strains, focusing on the diversity of their genome, morphology, and fitness traits. We found that C. jadinii comprises a mixed population of diploid and triploid cells, with the latter exhibiting significantly larger cell sizes than the former, suggesting that ploidy plays a crucial role in determining cell morphology. In contrast, fitness traits, including growth under 24 different conditions, were more closely associated with SNP-defined lineages than with ploidy. Cyberlindnera jadinii exhibited a genetic diversity (π = 18 × 10-3) four times higher than that of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, possibly reflecting genetic diversity shaped by history and environment. The heterologous expression of the CjFPS1 homolog in S. cerevisiae enhanced its growth on glycerol and acetate, underscoring its conserved metabolic function in carbon utilization. Overall, our findings not only reveal the rich genotypic and phenotypic diversity of C. jadinii but also provide new insights into its potential applications as a robust industrial yeast for diverse biotechnological processes.
