Range-Wide Genomic Analysis of Pygmy Rabbits (
Article in Genes, 2026. 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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesPygmy rabbits (
methodsWe used restriction site-associated DNA sequencing (RADseq) on samples from across the species range, including CB pygmy rabbits captured prior to genetic rescue and admixture. We determined population genetic structure across the pygmy rabbit range, tested for genomic signatures of adaptive divergence among populations, assessed the genetic distinctiveness of the ancestral CB population, and identified loci useful for monitoring ancestry in the current admixed CB population.
resultsOur dataset included 9794 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) across 123 individuals. We identified four distinct genetic groups, including the central portion of the species range and three peripheral populations: CB, northern Utah/Wyoming, and southern Utah. The ancestral CB population showed the highest degree of genetic distinctiveness using multiple clustering, ordination, and genetic differentiation analyses. We identified evidence for putatively adaptive variation among populations, but no significant gene ontology associated with local adaptation.
conclusionsOur results highlight the long-term isolation of the ancestral CB population as well as historical isolation of other peripheral populations. Our results also provide SNP loci for monitoring the consequences of genetic rescue efforts in the current admixed CB population.
