Abstract
We isolated a full-length cDNA encoding 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A synthase (HMG-S) from the pine engraver beetle, Ips pini (Say), and examined its genomic structure. The intron-less gene has a predicted 460 amino acid cytosolic protein product with 73% identity to HMG-S from Dendroctonus jeffreyi, and high identity (58-64%) with other insect HMG-Ss. Topically applied juvenile hormone (JH) III induced HMG-S mRNA levels up to 6.5-fold in both sexes, mostly in the anterior midgut, though there were differences between males and females in the timing, sensitivity to JH III dose and tissue distribution of HMG-S mRNA. These data further validate the coordinate regulation of mevalonate pathway genes for de novo isoprenoid pheromone production in bark beetles.

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
