Pangenome analysis provides insights into legume evolution and breeding.
Article in Nature genetics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Grain legumes hold great promise for advancing sustainable agriculture. Although the evolutionary history of legume species has been investigated, the conserved mechanisms that drive adaptive evolution and govern agronomic improvement remain elusive. Here we present high-quality genome assemblies for nine widely consumed pulses, including common bean, chickpea, pea, lentil, faba bean, pigeon pea, cowpea, mung bean and hyacinth bean. Pangenome analysis reveals the expansion of distinct gene sets in cool-season and warm-season legumes, highlighting the role of gene birth and duplication in the autoregulation of nodulation. Notably, hundreds of genes undergo convergent selection during the evolution of legumes, affecting agronomic traits such as seed weight. In addition, we demonstrate that tandem amplification of transposable elements in gene-depleted regions has a crucial role in driving genome enlargement and the formation of regulatory elements in cool-season legumes. Our results provide insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the diversification of legumes and represent a valuable resource for facilitating legume breeding.
