Metalaxyl sensitivity of isolates of <i>Phytophthora erythroseptica</i> in Prince Edward Island
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Isolates of Phytophthora erythroseptica , causal agent of pink rot of potato, were obtained from diseased tubers collected in Prince Edward Island (PEI), Canada. In an in vitro assay of field and single‐zoospore isolates, all isolates of the pathogen from PEI were sensitive to metalaxyl (EC 50 < 0·5 µ g mL −1 ), unlike moderately or highly resistant reference isolates obtained from Maine, USA. Allozyme‐banding patterns at the glucose‐6‐phosphate isomerase ( Gpi ) locus were identical (91/91) for all isolates of P. erythroseptica examined from PEI and Maine, but could be used to distinguish isolates of P. erythroseptica from local isolates of Phytophthora infestans . Inoculation of potato tubers from plants treated with foliar applications of metalaxyl in the field indicated that compounds inhibitory to metalaxyl‐sensitive isolates of P. erythroseptica were present in the periderm, even after 4 months' storage. By contrast, moderately or highly resistant isolates of the pathogen caused significantly ( P ≤ 0·05) more disease than sensitive isolates in tubers from plants treated with metalaxyl. The effectiveness of metalaxyl in controlling pink rot in a particular region will depend on resistance levels of local populations of P. erythroseptica . Preventing the development and spread of resistant strains of P. erythroseptica will be critical in maintaining metalaxyl as an effective chemical for control of this pathogen.

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.
