Abstract
Caseous lymphadenitis (CLA) is a chronic, suppurative disease, with a worldwide distribution, caused by Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis. The clinical manifestation of CLA is known to vary between different countries, and has been postulated to be due to differences in the strains present in these countries. Forty-two sheep and goat isolates of C. pseudotuberculosis from Australia, Canada, Eire, The Netherlands and Northern Ireland were characterized by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), biotyping, antimicrobial susceptibility, and production of phospholipase D. The PFGE-determined genotypes of this multicentric collection were then compared with representative ovine and caprine isolates from a previously published panel of PFGE profiles of United Kingdom isolates. Digestion with SfiI generated 16-18 bands in the 48.5 and 290 kb range, and differentiated four distinct pulsotypes amongst the 36 ovine and 6 caprine strains which displayed remarkable homogeneity. Based on these results, it would appear that the genome of C. pseudotuberculosis is highly conserved, irrespective of the country of strain origin.

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
