Chromosome-level genome assembly of the Adonis ladybird Hippodamia variegata.
Article in Scientific data, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The Adonis ladybird (Hippodamia variegata), an important predator in agricultural ecosystems, plays a crucial role in biological control and is a significant model for evolutionary and genomic studies within Coccinellidae. Despite its ecological importance, the lack of a reference genome for H. variegata has limited in-depth investigations into its biology and potential as a biocontrol agent. Here, we present a high-quality, chromosome-level genome assembly of H. variegata. The final assembly spans 493.01 Mb, with a scaffold N50 of 28.19 Mb and a GC content of 36.41%. Hi-C sequencing data enabled the anchoring of 343.20 Mb to 10 chromosomes. Repetitive elements accounted for 258.56 Mb (52.44%) of the genome, with long interspersed nuclear elements (LINEs) being the most prevalent. We identified 37,348 protein-coding genes, of which 78.55% were functionally annotated in public protein databases. This high-quality genome assembly will serve as a valuable resource for furthering our understanding of Adonis ladybird's evolutionary biology, enhancing its utility in pest management, and supporting future research on ladybird genomics.
