Genetic mapping of the<i>Sorghum bicolor vp1</i>gene and its relationship with preharvest sprouting resistance
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The plant vp1 gene encodes a transcription factor originally identified in maize that participates in the control of the transition from embryogenesis to seed germination. Different lines of evidence suggest that vp1 participates in preharvest sprouting (PHS) resistance in cereals, but the genetic relationship is not yet established. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate if there is a connection between vp1 and the formerly documented quantitative trait loci for PHS in Sorghum bicolor. This gene was mapped in sorghum using two well-studied inbred lines displaying contrasting PHS phenotypes. Linkage analysis revealed that the S. bicolor vp1 (Sbvp1) locus is linked to markers located on chromosomes 3 and 8 in maize. Analysis indicated that this gene is not correlated with PHS at a statistically significant level. Structural analysis of the Sbvp1 gene from both inbred lines showed a high degree of overall conservation (low polymorphism), even in the promoter region. These findings, taken together with the previously observed correlation between the pattern of expression of this gene and PHS performance, suggest that Sbvp1 might act downstream in the signalling pathway that leads to seed germination, or even be differentially regulated as a consequence rather than as a cause of the phenotypic behaviour.

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.
