Incomplete estimates of genetic diversity within species: Implications for DNA barcoding.
Review in Ecology and evolution, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 44 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
DNA barcoding has greatly accelerated the pace of specimen identification to the species level, as well as species delineation. Whereas the application of DNA barcoding to the matching of unknown specimens to known species is straightforward, its use for species delimitation is more controversial, as species discovery hinges critically on present levels of haplotype diversity, as well as patterning of standing genetic variation that exists within and between species. Typical sample sizes for molecular biodiversity assessment using DNA barcodes range from 5 to 10 individuals per species. However, required levels that are necessary to fully gauge haplotype variation at the species level are presumed to be strongly taxon-specific. Importantly, little attention has been paid to determining appropriate specimen sample sizes that are necessary to reveal the majority of intraspecific haplotype variation within any one species. In this paper, we present a brief outline of the current literature and methods on intraspecific sample size estimation for the assessment of COI DNA barcode haplotype sampling completeness. The importance of adequate sample sizes for studies of molecular biodiversity is stressed, with application to a variety of metazoan taxa, through reviewing foundational statistical and population genetic models, with specific application to ray-finned fishes (Chordata: Actinopterygii). Finally, promising avenues for further research in this area are highlighted.
