Improved assembly and annotation of the sesame genome.
Article in DNA research : an international journal for rapid publication of reports on genes and genomes, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 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
Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) is an important oilseed crop that produces abundant seed oil and has a pleasant flavor and high nutritional value. To date, several Illumina-based genome assemblies corresponding to different sesame genotypes have been published and widely used in genetic and genomic studies of sesame. However, these assemblies consistently showed low continuity with numerous gaps. Here, we reported a high-quality, reference-level sesame genome assembly by integrating PacBio high-fidelity sequencing and Hi-C technology. Our updated sesame assembly was 309.35 Mb in size with a high chromosome anchoring rate (97.54%) and contig N50 size (13.48 Mb), which were better than previously published genomes. We identified 163.38 Mb repetitive elements and 24,345 high-confidence protein-coding genes in the updated sesame assembly. Comparative genomic analysis showed that sesame shared an ancient whole-genome duplication event with two Lamiales species. A total of 2,782 genes were tandemly duplicated. We also identified several genes that were likely involved in fatty acid and triacylglycerol biosynthesis. Our improved sesame assembly and annotation will facilitate future genetic studies and genomics-assisted breeding of sesame.
