1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

We have investigated the mitotic and meiotic transmission of chromosome-length polymorphisms in Ophiostoma ulmi s.l., the causal agent of Dutch elm disease. The North-American aggressive (NAN) strain CESS16K has an atypical electrophoretic karyotype, carrying two chromosome-sized DNAs (chDNAs) that have not been observed in other members of the NAN biotype. Independent CESS16K chDNA preparations, even after repeated inoculation and recovery from the elm host, and analysis of 16 progeny strains after a cross between the NAN strains FG245Br-O and CESS16K, demonstrated that these unique chDNAs are integral components of the CESS16K genome. Analysis of the progeny, by electrophoretic karyotyping and hybridizations with probes specific to individual chDNAs, presented evidence that genome rearrangements can occur as a consequence of meiosis. Even though novel electrophoretic karyotypes and a novel-sized chromosome were observed in the karyotypes of the progeny strains, the low level of reassortment between the chromosomes carrying length polymorphisms presented evidence that there are constraints to genome plasticity for this fungus.
