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

Schizaphis graminum (Rondani), commonly known as the greenbug, is a major pest of cereal crops. It causes significant yield losses through direct phloem feeding and efficient transmission of crop viruses. Despite its agricultural importance, genomic resources for S. graminum have remained limited, hindering in-depth studies of its rapid environmental adaptation, insecticide resistance, and exceptional virus-vectoring capacity. Here, we present the first high-quality, chromosome-level genome assembly for S. graminum. The assembled genome spans 380.30 Mb, with 379.43 Mb (99.77%) successfully anchored to four pseudochromosomes. It exhibits high continuity, with scaffold and contig N50 values of 105.17 Mb and 48.79 Mb, respectively, and a BUSCO completeness of 97.10%. This genomic assembly provides a valuable resource for comparative genomics, evolutionary studies, and functional studies in aphids. It also establishes a foundation for elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying virulence, host specialization, and virus transmission in S. graminum.
