Bacterial genome reconstruction and community profiling in Neotropical Drosophila.
Article in Scientific reports, 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
Drosophila species serve as key models for microbiota research due to their relatively simple microbial communities. However, microbial diversity and dynamics in Neotropical Andean Drosophila remain underexplored. Here we applied shotgun metagenomics to characterize the microbiota of 24 Neotropical Drosophila species from Ecuador, reconstructing 64 high-quality bacterial genomes predominantly from Acetobacteraceae and Enterobacterales. Microbial communities were consistently dominated by yeasts, lactic acid bacteria, acetic acid bacteria, and Wolbachia. Comparative analyses revealed no strong correlation between host phylogeny and microbial community composition, suggesting environmental factors and microbial interactions shape these communities. Notably, shifts in relative abundances indicate dynamic ecological succession and metabolic cooperation among microbes. These findings expand genomic resources for Drosophila-associated bacteria and highlight the complex ecological processes influencing host-microbiota relationships in natural populations.
