Comparative transcriptomics in serial organs uncovers early and pan-organ developmental changes associated with organ-specific morphological adaptation.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Mice have evolved a new dental plan with two additional cusps on the upper molar, while hamsters were retaining the ancestral plan. By comparing the dynamics of molar development with transcriptome time series, we found at least three early changes in mouse upper molar development. Together, they redirect spatio-temporal dynamics to ultimately form two additional cusps. The mouse lower molar has undergone much more limited phenotypic evolution. Nevertheless, its developmental trajectory evolved as much as that of the upper molar and co-evolved with it. Among the coevolving changes, some are clearly involved in the new upper molar phenotype. We found a similar level of coevolution in bat limbs. In conclusion, our study reveals how serial organ morphology has adapted through organ-specific developmental changes, as expected, but also through shared changes that have organ-specific effects on the final phenotype. This highlights the important role of developmental system drift in one organ to accommodate adaptation in another.
