Characterization and genetic diversity analysis of lesser-known goat population of northern hills of Chhattisgarh.

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
This study aimed to delineate the native breeding tract, distribution, phenotypic characteristics, genetic diversity, and population structure of local goat population in the northern hills of Chhattisgarh, India. Phenotypic data were recorded from 636 adult local goats across 50 villages in three districts. A randomly selected, genetically unrelated subset of 48 individuals was genotyped using 23 FAO-recommended microsatellite markers. The newly identified goat population exhibited a medium-sized, compact body conformation with characteristic white facial strips, black ear margins, black neck rings and horizontally oriented ears. Canonical discriminant analysis identified two significant axes (CAN1: 77.6%, CAN2: 22.4%; P < 0.001), cumulatively accounting for 100% of the variance. Microsatellite analysis revealed 221 alleles, with mean allelic diversity of 9.17. Observed and expected heterozygosity values were 0.6666 and 0.7738, respectively. The mean inbreeding coefficient (FIS = 0.14) indicated a low level of inbreeding and absence of recent genetic bottleneck. The individual assignment accuracy was 47.6%, indicating moderate genetic homogeneity. These results confirm the presence of homogenous, phenotypically distinct and genetically diverse goat population well adapted to local agroclimatic conditions. Effective conservation depends on phenotypic and genetic characterization to identify unique traits and this assessment aids in precisely evaluating diversity and prioritizing the safeguarding of genetic resources for future breeding.
