Whole-Genome Sequencing Unveils the Uniqueness of Yushu Yaks (
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 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
The Yushu yak is one of China's distinctive yak breeds, primarily distributed in the Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of Qinghai Province and its surrounding areas. Yushu yaks are not only economically and culturally significant but also play a crucial role in protecting the ecosystem of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and promoting sustainable development. However, there are no clear records regarding the ancestry, population structure, and unique traits of Yushu yaks. Therefore, this study conducted an analysis of genetic diversity, population structure, and selection signals in Yushu yak populations, aiming to provide references for the conservation and utilization of the breed genetic resources. The results of the analysis showed that the Yushu yak population has high genetic diversity and low inbreeding coefficients, indicating a stable genetic structure. Population structure analysis revealed that the Yushu yak lineage is unique, with limited gene flow between domestic and wild yaks. Functional enrichment analysis of positively selected genes in Yushu yaks indicated prominent selection features related to growth and development as well as energy metabolism. Additionally, we classified the Yushu yak breeding bulls into family lineages based on kinship, which is essential for improving the efficiency of utilizing genetic resources and scientifically managing the population.
