Identification of transcripts up-regulated in asexual and sexual fruiting bodies of the Dutch elm disease pathogen<i>Ophiostoma novo-ulmi</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Suppression subtractive hybridization cDNA libraries were prepared from asexual synnemata (S-lib) and sexual perithecia (P-lib) fruiting bodies of the Dutch elm disease pathogen Ophiostoma novo-ulmi subsp. novo-ulmi isolate H327 (mating-type MAT1-1) consisting of 630 and 401 cDNA clones, respectively. Both libraries were differentially screened in duplicate with forward and reverse subtracted probes. Up-regulated S-lib transcripts included those with homologies to phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase and aquaporin. Up-regulated P-lib transcripts included those with homologies to aspartyl proteinase, DNA lyase 2, and part of a mating-type (MAT) protein containing a DNA-binding domain of the high-mobility group (HMG) type. Phylogenetic analyses of HMG domains present within the putative O. novo-ulmi MAT protein and within MAT1-1-3 and MAT1-2-1 proteins of other ascomycete fungi identified the O. novo-ulmi protein as a homologue of the MAT1-1-3 protein, which represents part of the so far uncharacterized O. novo-ulmi MAT1-1 idiomorph. Reverse transcription - quantitative real-time PCR indicated up-regulation of the MAT1-1-3 homologue in O. novo-ulmi perithecia and synnemata. The present work identifies, for the first time, proteins involved in the formation of asexual and sexual fruiting bodies in O. novo-ulmi and should be of interest to researchers concerned with reproduction, mating type, and sexuality of filamentous ascomycete fungi.

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.
