Linkage and mapping analyses of the densonucleosis non-susceptible gene <i>nsd-Z</i> in the silkworm <i>Bombyx mori</i> using SSR markers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In the silkworm Bombyx mori, non-susceptibility to the Zhenjiang (China) strain of the densonucleosis virus (DNV-Z) is controlled by the recessive gene nsd-Z (non-susceptible to DNV-Z), which is located on chromosome 15. Owing to a lack of crossing over in females, reciprocal backcrossed F1 (BC1) progeny were used for linkage analysis and mapping of the nsd-Z gene using silkworm strains Js and L10, which are classified as being highly susceptible and non-susceptible to DNV-Z, respectively. BC1 larvae were inoculated with the DNV-Z virus at the first instar, and DNA was extracted from the individual surviving pupae and analyzed for simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. The nsd-Z gene was found to be linked to 7 SSR markers, as all the surviving larvae in the BC1female (F1female x L10male) showed the homozygous profile of strain L10, and the sick larvae in the BC1female (F1female x L10male) showed the heterozygous profile of Js x L10 F1 hybrids. Using a reciprocal BC1male (L101female x F1male) cross, we constructed a linkage map of 80.6 cM, with nsd-Z mapped at 30 cM and the closest SSR marker at a distance of 4.4 cM.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
