Abstract
In Polychaeta, as in many invertebrates, reproduction is controlled by both environmental and endocrine factors. Although the effects of environmental factors on reproductive behaviour are briefly discussed, this review focuses on the endocrinology of reproduction. As Nereidae are the most intensively studied polychaetes, their epigamic monotelic strategy is discussed first in this review. Although a large number of physiological observations have been made, biochemical data have been greatly lacking until recent years, except, however, for the recent isolation of several pheromones. These substances, such as uric acid and L-cysteine gluthathione disulfide, occur widely and must be present at high concentrations in order to exert their physiological effects. Results obtained from iteroparous species are also considered. The stolonization strategy of Syllidae, the control of vitellogenesis in Nephtyidae, Phyllodocidae, Polynoidae, and Cirratulidae, and the regulation of gamete maturation in Arenicolidae and Pectinariidae are discussed. As with Nereidae, our knowledge of endocrine control is mainly based on experimental data, since only sperm-maturation factor in the genus Arenicola has been identified. Therefore, despite numerous interesting experimental studies in which functional roles for polychaete reproductive hormones have been described, their nature, their primary targets, and their mechanism of action are unfortunately still largely unknown.

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.
