A high-quality reference genome of the kelp surfperch, Brachyistius frenatus (Embiotocidae), a wide-ranging Eastern Pacific reef fish with no pelagic larval stage.
Article in The Journal of heredity, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 surfperches (family Embiotocidae) are a unique group of mostly marine fishes whose phylogenetic position within the Ovalentaria clade (Percomorpha) is still unresolved. As a result of their viviparity and lack of a dispersive larval stage, surfperches are an excellent model for the study of speciation, gene flow, and local adaptation in the ocean. They are also the target of an immensely popular recreational fishery. Very few high-quality molecular resources, however, are available for this group and only for a single species. Here, we describe a highly complete reference genome for the kelp surfperch, Brachyistius frenatus, assembled using a combination of short-read (Illumina, ~47× coverage) and long-read (Oxford Nanopore Technologies, ~27× coverage) sequencing. The 596 Mb assembly has a completeness level of 98.1% (BUSCO), a contig N50 of 2.6 Mb (n = 56), and a contig N90 of 406.6 kb (n = 293). Comparative analysis revealed a high level of synteny between B. frenatus and its close relative, Embiotoca jacksoni. This assembly will serve as a valuable molecular resource upon which future evolutionary dynamics research will build, such as the investigation of local adaptation and the genomic potential for climate adaptation in wild populations.
