Abstract
Plant breeding relies on genetic variability generated by meiotic recombination. Control of recombination frequencies is not yet possible, but would significantly extend the options for plant-breeding strategies. A prerequisite would be variability of recombination frequencies. In this study, 15 transgenic kanamycin (KR) and hygromycin (HR) resistance gene insertions mapping to the five Arabidopsis thaliana chromosomes were used as genetic markers. Recombination frequencies were determined from the frequencies of resistance phenotypes within populations segregating for linked KR and HR markers. Recombination frequencies of marker pairs were compared among these four ecotypes, among F1s in both reciprocal forms derived from these ecotypes, and between F1s and their parent lines. On average, the recombination frequencies in F1 crosses were substantially higher (up to 2-fold) than in the homozygous parental ecotypes. A strong negative correlation between genetic similarities of ecotypes and recombination frequencies was detected for two adjacent marker pairs located on the long arm of chromosome 3, but not for marker pairs in other genomic regions. Our results suggest that heterozygosity influences recombination in plant breeding, and cannot be ignored in genetic mapping of genomes.

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 it
