The Heritability of Migration Behaviors in a Wide-Ranging Ungulate.
Article in Ecology and evolution, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Migration behavior is thought to be declining globally in the face of rapid human-mediated environmental change. Although many species exhibit individual plasticity in their migratory behavior, not all species demonstrate the level of plasticity necessary to adjust to novel conditions. Selection on heritable behaviors might therefore play an important role in the maintenance of migratory phenotypes for some species. Using GPS and genomic data from 143 individuals (151 animal-years) in a pedigree-free quantitative genetic approach, we estimated heritability, repeatability, and sources of environmental variation for migration traits in migrating mule deer (
