Integrated transcriptomic analysis unveils molecular mechanisms regulating meat quality in newly improved black goat breeds.
Article in NPJ science of food, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
This study aimed to integrate transcriptomes to reveal the regulatory molecular mechanisms of meat quality in different black goat breeds. A comparison of Guizhou Black Goats (GBG♂, n = 7), Black Nubian Goats (NBG♂, n = 7), and their F1 hybrids (FBG♂, GB♀ × NB♂, n = 7) revealed that the FBG demonstrated notable improvements in meat quality parameters, muscle fiber traits, fatty acid and amino acid compositions, mineral content, intramuscular fat (IMF), and inosine monophosphate (IMP) levels. Moreover, transcriptome analysis identified 119, 77, and 82 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the GBG vs NBG, FBG vs GBG, and FBG vs NBG comparisons, respectively. Among these, 111, 74, and 82 DEGs were associated with IMF deposition, and 61, 34, and 32 DEGs were linked to IMP deposition, respectively. Of particular note, the analysis pinpointed key genes related to IMF (PFKM and FZD4) and IMP (AMPD3, ENPP1, ENTPD1, ENTPD8, and PRPS2), laying a solid data groundwork for future research aimed at enhancing the meat quality of black goats.
