1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Olfaction and gustation play critical roles during the host-location search process of insects. Several chemosensory receptor genes are thought to be involved in providing specificity to the olfactory sensory neuron responses. The aphid endoparasitoid, Aphidius gifuensis, has been used as a biological control agent against a variety of aphid species; this parasitoid is able to detect its target host(s) effectively during the parasitic process. To understand the mechanism of host detection in A. gifuensis, we assembled specific antennal transcriptomes of each sex through next generation sequencing technology to identify the major chemosensory receptor genes. Using a bioinformatics screen, we identified 100 olfactory receptors candidates (62 odorant receptors, 15 gustatory receptors, and 23 ionotropic receptors) from the sex-specific antennal transcriptome. In addition, combining with the demonstrated functions of chemosensory genes in other insects, the sex-, tissue-, and host-specific expression profile of chemosensory genes potentially revealed the candidate physiological functions. The identification and expression profile of chemosensory receptor genes in A. gifuensis provide valuable information for understanding and investigating the intraspecific or interspecific chemical communications in the solitary parasitic wasps.
