Gene conversion is involved in the transfer of genetic information between naturally occurring inversions of Drosophila.

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
The DNA sequences of the ribosomal protein 49 (rp49) region were determined for 34 isochromosomal strains of Drosophila subobscura representing two chromosomal arrangements, the OST and the O3 + 4 gene arrangements, which differ by two overlapping inversions. The data reveal that gene conversion is a mechanism responsible for the transfer of genetic information between naturally occurring inversions of Drosophila. The estimated rate of gene transfer by gene conversion at this region, which is close to an inversion breakpoint, is lower than previous estimates obtained experimentally at the rosy (ry) gene in Drosophila melanogaster. Our data indicate that gene arrangements OST and O3 + 4 are monophyletic and rather old (0.58 and 0.73 million years old, respectively).
