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

backgroundKoi carp, a variant of the common carp, is one of the most popular ornamental fish. Its genomic resources can help us better understand chromosome evolution and color phenotypes in cyprinid fish.

resultsWe constructed telomere-to-telomere chromosome-level genome assemblies for 2 koi carp variants (black and golden) by integrating MGI, PacBio HiFi, ONT, and Hi-C sequencing technologies. Haplotypic genomes comprised 50 chromosomes with 100 and 99 telomeres, respectively, with BUSCO results showing at least 98.8% completeness. We annotated a total of 55,023 and 54,569 protein-coding genes for black and golden koi carps, respectively, with over 96% assigned functional roles. Repetitive sequences occupy an estimated 636 Mb (41%) of the genomes. With phylogenetic analysis, we predict the koi carp variants to have split 5.3 million years ago, and we constructed an ancient karyotype of 25 ancestral chromosomes to reveal 9 major chromosomal rearrangements.

conclusionsOur study offers genome assemblies capable of predicting an ancient karyotype of Cypriniformes, with genomic resources available for in-depth investigations into diverse skin coloration in koi and other cypriniforms.
