Temperature affects conspecific and heterospecific mating rates in
Article in Animal behaviour, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Behavioural mating choices and mating success are important factors in the development of reproductive isolation during speciation. Environmental conditions, especially temperature, can affect these key traits. Environmental conditions can vary across, and frequently delimit, species' geographical ranges. Pairing suboptimal conditions with relative rarity of conspecifics at range margins may set the stage for hybridization. Despite the importance of mating behaviours as a reproductive barrier, a general understanding of the interaction between behavioural choices and the environment is lacking, in part because systematic studies are rare. With this report, we begin to bridge that gap by providing evidence that temperature has a significant but inconsistent influence on mating choices and success and, thus, on reproductive isolation in
