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

The vetch aphid, Megoura crassicauda is a globally distributed, major agricultural pest of beans and other leguminous crops, causing significant economic losses yearly. Its rapid reproductive rate and capacity to develop resistance to diverse pesticides pose substantial control challenges. However, the absence of high-quality reference genomes has impeded deeper exploration of gene function and hindered the development of new management strategies. Here, we present the first chromosomal-level high-quality genome of M. crassicauda, generated by integrating short-read, PacBio long-read and Hi-C sequencing technologies. The final assembly spans 440.80 Mb, comprising 179 contigs with a contig N50 of 41.57 Mb, and 94.82% of the sequence was successfully anchored to 6 pseudo-chromosomes. We annotated 19,424 protein-coding genes and achieved 97.10% BUSCO completeness. This high-quality genome provides an essential genetic resource for elucidating M. crassicauda biology and facilitates the development of targeted management strategies against this pest.
