Irradiation of rainbow trout at early life stages results in legacy effects in adults.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
PURPOSE: Communication of signals from irradiated to non-irradiated fish has been demonstrated by our group for adults. Major questions are however, whether the effects persist for significant lengths of time (meaning there are memories or legacies of the exposure) and whether they are induced in young animals or very early stages in the life cycle. METHODS: To address these questions we used a reporter cell clonogenic bioassay to detect the effects of radiation exposure and of 'bystander' signals, emitted from irradiated fish, on non-irradiated fish. The legacy of radiation exposure or receipt of bystander signals was investigated in rainbow trout irradiated as eggs at 48 h, eyed eggs at one month, yolk sac larvae (YSL) at two months and juveniles at three months after fertilisation. The irradiated and bystander fish together with shams and unhandled husbandry controls were grown on in a hatchery and examined as they reached each of the remaining life stages. They were also re-examined as one-year-olds with and without further irradiation and finally examined as sexually mature two-year-olds. RESULTS: The data indicate a clear legacy effect of irradiation at any early life stage in the adult fish. CONCLUSION: The data suggest that bystander signals can be transmitted in vivo and once induced are persistent during the animals' lifespan.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
