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

Cotesia ruficrus is a gregarious larval endoparasitoid of many important agricultural pest moths, such as the fall armyworm, northern armyworm and rice leaffolder. While eight of Cotesia genomes had been reported, high-quality genomic data of C. ruficrus has yet to be performed. This study presents a chromosome-scale genome assembly of C. ruficrus, utilizing both PacBio HiFi-reads and Hi-C reads. The genome size is about 185.3 Mb harboring 10 chromosomes, and 209 unanchored scaffolds with a scaffold N50 length of 15.81 Mb. The anchored rate of sequences to chromosomes is 95.55%. A total of 14,001 genes have been annotated. This work delivers a first high-quality, chromosome-scale genome for C. ruficrus, enriching the datasets for comparative evolutionary studies within the Cotesia genus. Additionally, it offers a valuable genomic resource for future biological and genetic research, as well as for enhancing pest management strategies, such as biological control.
