Genetic Diversity and Population Structure of Five Pig Breeds from Chongqing, China.
Article in Animals : an open access journal from MDPI, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Five pig breeds have been developed in Chongqing and are economically important livestock resources in this region: Hechuan Black pigs (HC), Luopanshan pigs (LP), Penzhou Mountain pigs (PZ), Quxi pigs (QX), and Rongchang pigs (RC). Understanding the genetic diversity and population structure of pig breeds can help improve the conservation and management of their genetic resources. This study sequenced SNPs in 188 pigs from five breeds in Chongqing, China, using a 50K SNP chip. Of the 45,211 detected SNPs, 9442 were excluded after quality control, and 35,769 were included in the analysis. Among the five breeds, QX had the highest genetic diversity. Principal component analysis and phylogenetic trees showed that the five populations were phylogenetically distinct. Population structure analysis identified five subpopulations at K = 5, indicating that RC were genetically independent. RC had the fastest linkage disequilibrium (LD) decay, suggesting weaker selection pressure. In turn, HC exhibited the slowest decay, indicating stronger selection pressure and closer relatedness within this population. The analysis of genetic differentiation indices revealed that LP and HC had the highest degree of differentiation (0.1958), while QX and PZ had the lowest (0.0748). In conclusion, we found differences in population structure among breeds, providing a basis for conserving genetic diversity and improving pig breeds.
