Exploring the complex population structure and admixture of four local Hungarian sheep breeds.
Article in Frontiers in genetics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The origin of sheep and their spread following domestication have been widely investigated using archaeology, genetics, and genomics. A thorough investigation of the genetic diversity of the breeds is key to providing useful information for conservation and breeding programmes. In Hungary, sheep farming contributes to the agricultural sector and national economy. It plays a crucial role in rural livelihoods, exports, and environmental management while also contributing to the national economy and preserving Hungary's cultural and agricultural heritage through traditional breeds. This study aims to analyse the population structure and patterns of admixture in four local Hungarian sheep breeds, namely, Indigenous Tsigai, Hortobagyi Racka, Cikta, and Bábolna Tetra. Our results revealed that the indigenous Hungarian Hortobagyi Racka sheep are distinct from the other Hungarian breeds studied. The effective population sizes were found to be low, with varying levels of genomic inbreeding both within and across breeds. These results align with documented bottlenecks and instances of crossbreeding with other local or improved breeds. Ancestry analysis demonstrated some introgression between Scandinavian and Hungarian sheep breeds and
