Telomere-to-telomere genome assembly of the Dipteran Bactrocera dorsalis from a single individual.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Dipteran insects include numerous harmful species that cause significant agricultural damage. However, assembly of genomes for species in this order has been difficult due to their small body size, poor conservation of telomere and centromere structures, high levels of heterozygosity, and complex genetic backgrounds. In this study, we assemble a high-quality 596 Mb telomere-to-telomere genome for Bactrocera dorsalis, a fruit crop pest, using a strategy with a low-input HiFi CCS library from a male individual and an ONT sequence from pooled inbred individuals. The assembly includes complete structural organization information for centromeres and telomeres, providing insights into the evolution of chromosome structure in insects. Comparative genomic analysis reveals the polyphyletic origin of sex chromosomes across Diptera. Furthermore, we identify a homolog of ATPsynβ as a Y chromosome-specific gene that is highly expressed across multiple male tissues and may provide critical support for male-specific physiological activities. Additionally, we discover several tandem duplications of odorant receptor genes, including a triplet of the OR88a family, which was validated to be involved in the behavioral response to methyl eugenol. In summary, this complete reference genome provides a foundation for future genomic research in Diptera and offers genetic insights for the control of B. dorsalis.
