ReviewTrends in genetics : TIG2025
The molecular evolutionary basis of species formation revisited.
Review in Trends in genetics : TIG, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
How do new species arise? This is among the most fundamental questions in evolutionary biology. The first genetic model for how reproductive barriers lead to the origin of new species was proposed nearly 90 years ago. However, empirical evidence for the genetic mechanisms that cause reproductive barriers took many decades to accumulate. In 2010, Presgraves presented a comprehensive review of the literature on known 'speciation genes' and the possible evolutionary mechanisms through which they arose. Fifteen years later, with an explosion of studies that include both non-model and model organisms, the number of known hybrid incompatibility genes has increased approximately sevenfold. Here, we synthesize previous and new empirical examples to investigate the genetic mechanisms through which intrinsic incompatibilities in hybrids arise and highlight current gaps in our understanding.
