1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 West Indian fruit fly, Anastrepha obliqua, is a major pest of mango in Central and South America and attacks more than 60 species of host fruits. To support current genetic and genomic research on A. obliqua, we sequenced the genome using high-fidelity long-read sequencing. This resulted in a highly contiguous contig assembly with 90% of the genome in 10 contigs. The contig assembly was placed in a chromosomal context using synteny with a closely related species, Anastrepha ludens, as both are members of the Anastrepha fraterculus group. The resulting assembly represents the five autosomes and the X chromosome which represents 95.9% of the genome, and 199 unplaced contigs representing the remaining 4.1%. Orthology analysis across the structural annotation sets of high quality tephritid genomes demonstrates the gene annotations are robust, and identified genes unique to Anastrepha species that may help define their pestiferous nature that can be used as a starting point for comparative genomics. This genome assembly represents the first of this species and will serve as a foundation for future genetic and genomic research in support of its management as an agricultural pest.
