Occurrence of parasporin-producing<i>Bacillus thuringiensis</i>in Vietnam
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A total of 63 Bacillus thuringiensis isolates were recovered from urban soils of Hanoi, Vietnam. Of these, 34 were identified to 12 H serogroups. None of the isolates showed larvicidal activities against three lepidopterous insects. Three isolates belonging to the two serovars, colmeri (H21) and konkukian (H34), were highly toxic to larvae of the mosquito Aedes aegypti. Parasporal inclusion proteins of four isolates exhibited cytocidal activities against HeLa cells. Immunologically, proteins of four isolates were closely related to parasporin-1 (Cry31Aa), a parasporal protein that preferentially kills human cancer cells. Haemolytic activities were associated with parasporal proteins of the three mosquitocidal isolates but not with those of the four cancer-cell-killing isolates. PCR experiments and nucleotide sequence analysis revealed that the genes of four anti-cancer isolates are closely related to the gene parasporin-1 (cry31Aa) but are dissimilar to those of the three other existing parasporins. Our results suggest that the soil of northern Vietnam is a good reservoir of parasporin-producing B. thuringiensis.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
