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 inheritance of chromosome-length polymorphisms in the basidiomycete Coprinus cinereus. The electrophoretic karyotypes of interfertile strains of C. cinereus are strikingly different, and crosses between strains with different karyotypes yield progeny with chromosomes of new sizes. Repeated backcrossing of a mutant to one parent often stabilizes the mutant chromosome at a unique size; this then becomes a chromosome-length polymorphism marker for that mutant gene. A comparison of mutant strains, their wild-type progenitor, and backcrossed strains revealed that these marker chromosomes are not caused by the initial mutagenic treatment and are found only in progeny of crosses between strains with polymorphic chromosomes. Thus, they are most likely formed by meiotic recombination. For the rad12 gene, the marker chromosome can further recombine to become the size of the homolog of the backcross parent. For the rad3 gene, both ectopic and homologous recombination events are likely involved in the generation of the marker chromosomes. As predicted by a recombination model, a cross to a new wild-type parent can change the size of a mutant marker chromosome. Therefore, changes in chromosome length are a common and prominent feature of the genome of this sexual fungus, and a variety of karyotypes is tolerated by the organism.
