Evolutionary relationships and sequence variation of alpha-amylase variants encoded by duplicated genes in the Amy locus of Drosophila melanogaster.
Article in Genetics, 1995. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
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
To infer the genealogical relationships of alpha-amylase electromorphs of Drosophila melanogaster, we determined the nucleotide sequences of a collection of electromorphs sampled throughout the world. On average there were 1.0 amino acid substitutions between identical electromorphs and 3.9 between different electromorphs, respectively. We found that the evolution of AMY1 through AMY6 electromorphs occurred by sequential accumulation of single amino acid substitutions each causing one charge difference. The nucleotide diversities at synonymous sites within Amy1,Amy2,Amy3,Amy4 and Amy6 were 0.0321, 0.0000, 0.0355, 0.0059 and 0.0030, respectively. We also obtained evidence of genetic exchanges, such as intrachromosomal recombination, interchromosomal recombination or gene conversion, between the two duplicated Amy genes as well as among the alleles.
