Chromosomal-Level Genome Assembly of a True Bug, Aspongopus chinensis Dallas, 1851 (Hemiptera: Dinidoridae).
Article in Genome biology and evolution, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The true bug, Aspongopus chinensis Dallas, 1851 (Hemiptera: Dinidoridae), is a fascinating insect with prolonged diapause and medicinal properties but also a notorious pest. However, because of the lack of genomic resources, an in-depth understanding of its biological characteristics is lacking. Here, we report the first genome assembly of A. chinensis anchored to 10 pseudochromosomes, which was achieved by combining PacBio long reads and Hi-C sequencing data. This chromosome-level genome assembly was 1.55 Gb in size with a scaffold N50 of 156 Mb. The benchmarking universal single-copy ortholog (BUSCO) analysis of the assembly captured 96.6% of the BUSCO genes. A total of 686,888,052 bp of repeat sequences, 18,511 protein-coding genes, and 1,749 noncoding RNAs were annotated. By comparing the A. chinensis genome with that of 8 homologous insects and 2 model organisms, 213 rapidly evolving gene families were identified, including 83 expanded and 130 contracted gene families. The functional enrichment of Gene Ontology and KEGG pathways showed that the significantly expanded gene families were primarily involved in metabolism, immunity, detoxification, and DNA/RNA replication associated with stress responses. The data reported here shed light on the ecological adaptation of A. chinensis and further expanded our understanding of true bug evolution in general.
