Assessing Current Fish Diversity in the Yellow River Basin by Integrating Large-Scale Barcoding and Morphological Data.
Article in Ecology and evolution, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
In recent years, fish populations in the Yellow River (YR) basin have declined sharply due to human activities. Some studies even suggest that nearly half of the native fish species in the YR have disappeared. There are also significant differences among the literature on the systematic discussion of fish species in the Yellow River Basin. The construction of a standardized and complete DNA barcode database for YR fish is urgently needed. In this study, 127 sampling points were sampled in the YR basin from 2013 to 2023, and a DNA barcode database of 3011 sequences and 110 species was constructed. A total of 124 operable taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified via four sequence-based species classification methods. The barcode and morphological results of 84 (77.1%) species remained consistent. Some species cannot be described in the literature and are assigned to unique OTUs, and some widely distributed species are also assigned multiple OTUs. These findings indicate that the fish diversity in the YR basin has been severely underestimated, and more detailed investigations and further research are needed. This study constructed the first fish DNA barcode database in the YR basin and provided new insights for the study of fish diversity in the region.
