Factors influencing gene introgression into the allotetraploid<i>Coffea arabica</i>L. from its diploid relatives
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Factors controlling gene introgression into cultivated arabica coffee (Coffea arabica L.) were investigated. Interspecific triploid hybrid plants between the tetraploid species C. arabica (2n = 44) and a diploid species (2n = 22), either Coffea canephora or Coffea eugenioides, were backcrossed to C. arabica (male parent). Flow cytometric analysis of the nuclear DNA content revealed that most of the BC(1) individuals derived from triploid hybrids involving C. eugenioides were tetraploid or nearly tetraploid. Among the gametes produced by the interspecific triploid hybrids, those possessing approximately 22 chromosomes appeared strongly favored. The amount of introgression in BC(1) individuals (21 and 43 for the BC(1) progenies involving C. canephora and C. eugenioides, respectively) was estimated using species-specific microsatellite markers. A large number of introgressed markers was observed in all BC(1) individuals. Nevertheless, while the frequency of introgressed markers seemed as expected, assuming random chromosome segregation and diploid gamete formation, in the BC(1) derived from triploid hybrids involving C. canephora, this frequency appeared significantly lower in the BC(1) derived from triploid hybrids involving C. eugenioides. Furthermore, the comparison of reciprocal progenies between C. arabica and triploid interspecific hybrids (C. arabica x C. canephora) used as male or female parent revealed a very strong effect of the backcross direction.

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.
