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

Sitobion avenae (Fabricius), a major pest of cereal crops worldwide, causes significant damage on agricultural production. However, the lack of high-quality genomes has limited in-depth studies on its biology and effective management strategies. Here, we report a chromosome-level genome assembly of S. avenae, generated by combining PacBio long-read sequencing, Illumina short-read sequencing, and Hi-C scaffolding. The assembled genome has a size of 421 Mb, with 99.97% of sequences anchored to nine pseudochromosomes. It comprises only 11 scaffolds, exhibits the scaffold N50 and contig N50 of 39.84 Mb and 28.00 MB, and achieves a BUSCO completeness of 97.30%. Repetitive elements account for 37.40% (157.66 Mb) of the assembly. We annotated 15,369 protein-coding genes and 1,188 non-coding RNAs. This high-quality genome of S. avenae serves as a valuable genomic resource for advancing research on pest management and host adaptation mechanisms in this aphid species.
