Molecular identification of some wild macrofungi from Southeastern Nigeria.
Article in BMC genomic data, 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
Mushrooms are grossly under exploited and efforts to domesticate them are not yielding enough results as over 95% of mushrooms consumed in Africa and most parts of the world are still collected from the wild. However, the utility and commercialization of wild mushrooms has been hampered by incorrect morphological identifications. Molecular markers, including the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region, have proven to be efficient in mushroom diversity studies. This research aimed to investigate the diversity of wild mushrooms indigenous to southeast Nigeria. Fifty (50) samples of wild growing mushrooms were collected using opportunistic sampling method in 5 states of the region. Zymo Research Quick-DNA Plant/Seed Miniprep kit was used for DNA extraction, the ITS region was amplified using PCR and subsequently sequenced with Sanger sequencing technology. BLASTn search in Genbank databases were conducted to determine the identity of the sampled mushrooms. Genomic DNA was successfully extracted and amplified, although with varying band quality. Forty-one (41) out of the 50 mushroom samples were successfully sequenced and identified. The identified mushroom species were classified into 11 families with family Polyporaceae (13), Agaricaceae (9), Omphatotaceae (7) and Ganodermataceae (4), topping the list. Trametes (7) and Lentinus (6) were the most abundant genera followed by Neonothopanus (5), and Ganoderma (4). Barcode marker (ITS region) was effective in identifying the wild mushrooms of Southeastern Nigeria.
