Frequency, Origins, and Evolutionary Role of Chromosomal Inversions in Plants.
Review in Frontiers in plant science, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 92 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
Chromosomal inversions have the potential to play an important role in evolution by reducing recombination between favorable combinations of alleles. Until recently, however, most evidence for their likely importance derived from dipteran flies, whose giant larval salivary chromosomes aided early cytogenetic studies. The widespread application of new genomic technologies has revealed that inversions are ubiquitous across much of the plant and animal kingdoms. Here we review the rapidly accumulating literature on inversions in the plant kingdom and discuss what we have learned about their establishment and likely evolutionary role. We show that inversions are prevalent across a wide range of plant groups. We find that inversions are often associated with locally favored traits, as well as with traits that contribute to assortative mating, suggesting that they may be key to adaptation and speciation in the face of gene flow. We also discuss the role of inversions in sex chromosome formation, and explore possible parallels with inversion establishment on autosomes. The identification of inversion origins, as well as the causal variants within them, will advance our understanding of chromosomal evolution in plants.
