Antibiotic production in relation to bacterial growth and nematode development in<i>PhotorhabdusâHeterorhabditis</i>infected<i>Galleria mellonella</i>larvae
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The population of Photorhabdus luminescens C9, bacterial symbiont of the entomopathogenic nematode, Heterorhabditis megidis 90, increased rapidly to 1.2-2.6x10(9) cells g(-1) wet Galleria mellonella larvae within 24 h of nematode infection of the larvae, and maintained a relatively constant level (1.2-2.0x10(10) cells g(-1)) through the entire 14-day period of nematode development. The antibiotic, 3, 5-dihydroxy-4-isopropylstilbene, was produced by P. luminescens C9 after 24 h of nematode infection, increased rapidly at 2-5 days postinfection and remained at a level of 3000-3600 microg g(-1) wet larvae until about 21 days, decreasing gradually thereafter. The early production and continued presence of a relatively large amount of 3,5-dihydroxy-4-isopropylstilbene in the infected insect supports the hypothesis that the antibiotics produced by the bacterial symbiont help minimize competition from other microorganisms and prevents the putrefaction of the nematode-infected insect cadaver.

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.
