Population identification and divergence threshold in Psoroptidae based on ribosomal ITS2 and mitochondrial COI genes.
Article in Parasitology research, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Psoroptidae mites are a type of small mites with a wide range of hosts. The proliferation of Psoroptidae mites could cause symptoms such as severe itching, atopic dermatitis, and hair loss in infected animals. If severely infected, death can also occur. The morphological classification and identification of Psoroptidae mites is problematic due to the overlapping geographical distribution. In addition, there is no divergence threshold for molecular classification and identification. To solve this problem, gDNA was extracted from individual Psoroptes and Otodectes mites (China) for amplification of rDNA ITS2 and mtDNA COI. After that, the sequences obtained were aligned and analyzed with those retrieved from GenBank. Based on rDNA ITS2 sequences, Psoroptidae was divided into three genera, namely, Psoroptes, Chorioptes, and Otodectes, which was in accordance with morphological classification. The intraspecies, interspecies, and intergenera could be differentiated effectively, with thresholds ≤ 5.20, 6.18-14.86, and ≥15.72 %, respectively. However, based on mtDNA COI sequences, Psoroptidae was divided into four genera with Caparinia added, as Caparinia sp did not cluster with the other three genera. The intra- and interspecies could be differentiated effectively, but interspecies and intergenera could not. The intra- and interspecies identification thresholds were ≤ 2.12 and ≥10.93 %. Further analysis showed that host but not geographical isolation was found in Psoroptes and Chorioptes, whereas Otodectes mites parasitizing dogs and cats were the same species; neither host nor geographical isolation was observed. In conclusion, rDNA ITS2 is better than mtDNA COI for DNA barcoding in Psoroptidae.
