Identification of low-temperature-regulated genes in the fire blight pathogen<i>Erwinia amylovora</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Genes involved in pathogenicity of several plant pathogens were shown to be induced at relatively cold temperatures. Loci from the fire blight pathogen Erwinia amylovora (Burrill) induced at 18 degrees C were identified using the miniTn5 transposon that contains the promoterless reporter gene gusA coding for beta-glucuronidase (GUS). Certain mutants (2.7%) expressed GUS predominantly at 18 degrees C on minimal medium plates, indicating that the transposon had been inserted downstream of a putatively thermoregulated promoter. Those mutants were further screened with a quantitative GUS fluorometric assay. A total of 21 mutants were selected: 19 mutants had a transposon insertion in temperature-dependent genetic loci, with a 2.2- to 6.3-fold induction of gusA gene expression at 18 degrees C, and two mutants with impaired growth at 18 degrees C. Some of these genetic loci encoded (i) proteins implicated in flagella biosynthesis, biotin biosynthesis, multi-drug efflux, and type II secretion protein, and (ii) proteins of unknown function.

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.
