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

Potato grouper (Epinephelus tukula) is an economically important aquaculture species exhibiting rapid growth performance. Chromosome-level genome of potato grouper has been reported, however, the genome has a large proportion of scaffolds that were not anchored onto chromosomes. Here, we assembled an improved high-quality chromosome-level genome of potato grouper using PacBio HiFi sequencing and Hi-C technology in the present study. The total genome assembly was 1.108 Gb with a contig N50 of 41.91 Mb and a scaffold N50 of 46.58 Mb. Approximately 99.53% of the assembly was anchored onto 24 chromosomes. The completeness of the assembly was estimated to be 98.1% based on BUSCO. A total of 25,028 protein-coding genes were predicted, 98.77% (24,719) of which were functionally annotated. This high-quality reference genome of the potato grouper provides a valuable resource for genetic breeding, population genomics, and exploration of functional genes for important traits.
