Genomic architecture of purebred and crossbred Moghani lambs with Texel and Booroola sheep.

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
Crossbreeding with Booroola or Texel sheep harboring major genes for prolificacy and muscularity enhances productivity but it may limit adaptation and survivorship in crossbred lambs. Thus, the trade-offs that impact productivity and adaptability have not been quantified or modeled and remain largely elusive at the genetic level, limiting the development of optimized breeding strategies. This study investigates the genomic architecture of purebred Moghani sheep and the first paternal backcross (PBC1) generation of crossbred lambs, including Booroola Merino × Moghani (BMM), Booroola Romney × Moghani (BRM), Texel Dalzell × Moghani (TDM), and Texel Tamlet × Moghani (TTM). Genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) was used to assess genetic diversity, admixture patterns, and selection signatures. Structure analysis revealed complex admixture in BMM and BRM, while TDM and TTM were more homogeneous. Purebred Moghani sheep exhibited the highest genetic diversity (H
