Opportunities for geitonogamy in the clonal herb <i>Maianthemum dilatatum</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Clonal plant species have a diverse range of morphologies, which influences the spatial proximity of clonemates, which may affect the rate of geitonogamy. This study measured fine-scale clonal structure, pollinator behaviour, and impacts of geitonogamy on seed set in Maianthemum dilatatum (A. Wood) Nels. & J.F. Macbr., a herb with a spreading clonal morphology. Despite having a dispersive habit, on average more than 75% of the 10 nearest flowering neighbours of a ramet were clonemates of that ramet. Pollinators foraged preferentially among near-neighbours, but during bouts, visitors typically visited only two floral ramets, effectively lowering the expected contribution to geitonogamy based on flight distances alone. Experimental hand pollinations, pollinator exclusion, and emasculation treatments provided evidence that geitonogamy attributable to pollen from neighbouring ramets may reduce seed set in natural populations through a mechanism of self-interference. Even in a dispersive clonal plant species such as M. dilatatum, clonemate-level geitonogamy is a likely factor constraining female reproductive success.

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.
