Distribution and frequency of mating types in the asexual fungus <i>Septoria passerinii</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Four hundred and sixty-nine Septoria passerinii isolates sampled from 15 widely distributed fields in North Dakota and two in western Minnesota were used to analyze the distribution and frequency of mating type idiomorphs using a multiplex polymerase chain reaction. Two sites, Williston, North Dakota, and Langdon, North Dakota, were sampled in a hierarchical fashion, and the remaining 15 sites were sampled in a random stratified fashion. The χ2 test revealed that, with clone-corrected data, equal frequencies of both mating types occurred within the whole field at both Williston and Langdon as well as at 11 of 15 sites sampled with a random stratified method. Only one of the two mating types was found at each of four sites. In two of those sites, this finding could have resulted from small sample sizes rather than evolutionary forces. Equal frequencies of the two mating types are consistent with a sexually reproducing population. From the results of this study, we conclude that, despite a teleomorph never having been found in the field, sexual recombination is probably occurring in S. passerinii in many areas of North Dakota.

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.
