A DNA Barcode Reference Library for Trichoptera of Jingpo Lake: Taxonomic Diversity and Molecular Identification Basics.
Article 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
Jingpo Lake in Northeast China is a vital aquatic ecosystem, yet it lacks baseline molecular data for its insects. Trichoptera (caddisflies) are excellent ecological bioindicators, but their accurate identification is often hindered by morphological similarities, life-stage limitations, and insufficient DNA barcode records. To address this gap, this study combined morphological identification with DNA barcoding to establish a local reference database. From 285 collected adult caddisflies, 105 representative specimens were selected for genetic analysis. The survey identified 22 species across 9 families, revealing four new records for China and six for Heilongjiang Province. Analyses confirmed the high efficacy of the COI marker, demonstrating low intraspecific genetic divergence (0.78%) and high interspecific divergence (17.80%), with a clear barcode gap separating all examined species. Species accumulation curves indicated robust sampling of the main genera, although expanded collection efforts could still uncover additional species. In conclusion, this study provides a valuable DNA barcode reference library for Trichoptera in the Jingpo Lake region. It establishes foundational data for regional biodiversity inventories and future ecological monitoring based on environmental DNA (eDNA) or metabarcoding approaches.
