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

Understanding the genomic consequences of hybridization is an essential research focus in global change biology. Species adapted to rapidly changing environments can offer valuable, yet largely underexplored insights in this context. Here, we present the first de novo transcriptomes of the sea-rock pools mosquitoes Aedes mariae and Aedes zammitii, two species adapted to highly variable habitats. Using RNA-seq data obtained from larval stages, we assembled and annotated 95,059,578 reads for Ae. mariae and 101,050,236 reads for Ae. zammitii, detecting 49,352 transcripts with N50 of 2,615 for the former and 43,461 transcripts with N50 of 2,570 for the latter. Validation by BUSCO confirmed the high quality of our resources. Homology alignments of predicted ORFs showed that 21,842 sequences from Ae. mariae and 21,944 sequences from Ae. zammitii mapped to the Nr, SwissProt, and TrEMBL databases, while 19,208 and 19,393 predicted ORFs, respectively, were functionally annotated using the COG and KEGG databases. These high-quality transcriptomes will provide valuable resources to investigate the role of hybridization in species adaptation to changing environments.
