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

Molecular tools used for the identification of species are heavily reliant on reference DNA sequences and taxonomic annotation. Despite this, there are large gaps in the availability of DNA sequences for many taxonomic groups and for different parts of the globe. Here, a DNA barcode library for the Hymenoptera of New Zealand is presented, based on the COI region for 3,145 sequences assigned to 837 BINs and which represent 231 genera and 236 species. This study provides a DNA barcode for approximately 25% of species and 42% of genera of Hymenoptera in New Zealand. However, when combined with sequences previously deposited in BOLD (a further 170 genera), DNA barcodes are available for 73% of New Zealand Hymenopteran genera. To further increase coverage, future efforts need to focus predominantly on taxa from seven families (Encyrtidae, Pteromalidae s.l., Mymaridae, Eulophidae, Diapriidae, Braconidae and Platygastridae). This database facilitates DNA-based identification of taxa for use in both taxonomic revisions and biodiversity monitoring.
