Abstract
Abstract This study investigates species boundaries in the polyploid complex of Rosa sect. Cinnamomeae east of the Rocky Mountains. This complex is characterized by extensive intra-specific polymorphism that is the consequence, in part, of hybridization and polyploidy. An objective multivariate approach is employed to delimit species in the complex, which involved cluster and ordination analyses of 25 quantitative morphological characters and of amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs). Because polyploid individuals blurred species boundaries in the complex, they were discriminated a priori using stomata guard cell lengths in order to investigate species boundaries at each ploidy level separately. Four distinct species were found at the diploid level: R. blanda – R. woodsii, R. foliolosa, R. nitida and R. palustris. According to the morphological and molecular data, R. blanda and R. woodsii are indistinguishable and should be considered as a single species. Three species were identified at the polyploid level, R. arkansana, R. carolina, and R. virginiana, albeit with evidence of hybridization between them. The genetic and morphological similarity between individuals of the polyploid species and those of the different diploid species allowed us to identify possible parents for the polyploid species. Rosa arkansana likely originated from R. blanda (incl. R. woodsii), R. carolina from a hybrid between R. blanda and R. palustris, and R. virginiana from R. palustris. Although the multivariate approach was not able to differentiate species when all individuals were considered together, a classification tree showed that it is indeed feasible to identify species in the complex without prior knowledge of the ploidy level of individuals.

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 it
