Whole-genome sequencing analysis of volvocine green algae reveals the molecular genetic basis for the diversity and evolution of sex.

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
This review describes the development of evolutionary studies of sex based on the volvocine lineage of green algae, which was facilitated by whole-genome analyses of both model and non-model species. Volvocine algae, which include Chlamydomonas and Volvox species, have long been considered a model group for experimental studies investigating the evolution of sex. Thus, whole-genomic information on the sex-determining regions of volvocine algal sex chromosomes has been sought to elucidate the molecular genetic basis of sex evolution. By 2010, whole genomes were published for two model species in this group, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and Volvox carteri. Recent improvements in sequencing technology, particularly next-generation sequencing, allowed our studies to obtain complete genomes for non-model, but evolutionary important, volvocine algal species. These genomes have provided critical details about sex-determining regions that will contribute to our understanding of the diversity and evolution of sex.
