De novo genome assembly of a Geomyid rodent, Botta's pocket gopher (Thomomys bottae bottae).

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
Botta's pocket gopher (Thomomys bottae) is a common and widespread subterranean rodent of the North American West. The species has been of great interest to evolutionary biologists due to the phenotypic diversity and unusual levels of variation in chromosome number and composition observed across its range. Here, we present a high-quality reference genome from a male T. b. bottae individual captured in the San Francisco Bay Area. The assembly is comprised of 2,792 scaffolds, with a scaffold N50 value of 23.6 Mb and a BUSCO completeness score of 91.0%. This genome helps fill a significant taxonomic sampling gap in rodent genome resources. With this reference genome, we envision new opportunities to investigate questions regarding the genomics of adaptation to the belowground niche. Further, we can begin to explore the impact of associated life history traits, such as limited dispersal and low population connectivity, on intraspecific genetic and phenotypic variation, genome evolution, speciation, and phylogenetic relationships across the Geomyoidea.
