Genomic Insights and Bioconversion Potential in the Black Soldier Fly (
Review in Insects, 2026. 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
The global population continues to rise, placing increasing pressure on the agri-food sector and leading to the accelerated generation of urban organic waste, factors that collectively intensify climate stress and environmental instability. Insects are recognised for their remarkable capacity to transform substrates into valuable products, with the black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) emerging as one of the most efficient and widely utilised species for this purpose. Beyond recycling organic matter, BSFL can also mitigate microbial contamination, effectively reducing bacterial and fungal loads in waste substrates. Understanding and manipulating the genome could provide tools to improve BSFL bioconversion process and contribute to sustainability. In this review, we provide an overview of recent advances in black soldier fly genomics and genome-editing technologies. Although research in this subject remains limited, recent studies have clarified its origin, characterised its genome, and established the foundation for targeted genetic improvements to enhance by-product conversion, nutrient recovery, and environmental sustainability.
