Chemosensory genes in the antennal transcriptome of two syrphid species, Episyrphus balteatus and Eupeodes corollae (Diptera: Syrphidae).

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
backgroundPredatory syrphid larvae are an important natural enemy of aphids in cotton agro-ecosystems in China. Their behaviors in prey foraging, localization and oviposition greatly rely on the perception of chemical cues. As a first step to better understand syrphid olfaction at the molecular level, we have performed a systematic identification of their major chemosensory genes.
resultsMale and female antennal transcriptomes of Episyrphus balteatus and Eupeodes corollae were sequenced and assembled using Illumina HiSeq2000 technology. A total of 154 chemosensory genes in E. balteatus transcriptome, including candidate 51 odorant receptors (ORs), 32 ionotropic receptors (IRs), 14 gustatory receptors (GRs), 49 odorant-binding proteins (OBPs), 6 chemosensory proteins (CSPs) and 2 sensory neuron membrane proteins (SNMPs) were identified. In E. corollae transcriptome, we identified 134 genes including 42 ORs, 23 IRs, 16 GRs, 44 OBPs, 7 CSPs and 2 SNMPs. We have provided full-length sequences of the highly conserved co-receptor Orco, IR8a/25a family and carbon dioxide gustatory receptor in both syrphid species. The expression of candidate OR genes in the two syrphid species was evaluated by semi-quantitative reverse transcription PCR. There were no significant differences of transcript abundances in the respective male and female antenna, which is consistent with differentially expressed genes (DEGs) analysis using the FPKM value. The sequences of candidate chemosensory genes were confirmed and phylogenetic analysis was performed.
conclusionsThis research comprehensively analyzed and identified many novel candidate chemosensory genes regarding syrphid olfaction. It provides an opportunity for understanding how syrphid insects use chemical cues to conduct their behaviors among tritrophic interactions of plants, herbivorous insects, and natural enemies in agricultural ecosystems.
