Chromosome-level genome assembly of Marco Polo Blister Beetle (Hycleus marcipoli).
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
Hycleus marcipoli is an agricultural pest that feeds on the flowers and leaves of leguminous plants, including Desmodium spp., as well as sweet potatoes. It exhibits hypermetamorphic development-an exceptionally complex life cycle shared by the genus and subfamily. Despite the availability of fragmented genomes of Hycleus, a high-quality, chromosome-level genome reference is not yet available for this diverse genus. To address this gap, we present the first chromosome-level genome assembly for H. marcipoli. The 111 Mb genome (scaffold N50: 10.22 Mb) was successfully anchored to 11 chromosomes, with repetitive elements accounting for 26.43% of the assembly. We annotated 13,357 protein-coding genes, achieving 98.80% BUSCO completeness. This high-quality genomic resource establishes a foundation for elucidating the olfactory and visual system modifications associated with metamorphic transitions, understanding the evolutionary drivers of rapid species diversification in Hycleus, and exploring novel targets for pest control.
