A New Locus for Early Maturity in Soybean
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The genetic model for maturity in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is a series of near‐isogenic lines, but they do not span the natural variation for early maturity. The objectives of this study were to determine if a single gene in OT98‐17 controls early maturity and if this is a new locus. A cross was made between ‘Maple Presto’ and OT98‐17, an early‐maturing Maple Presto–derived backcross line. A total of 201 F3 progeny rows from this population and Maple Presto were grown at Ottawa, ON, in 1999. In 2000, F4 progeny rows were grown and 150 late‐maturing and 51 early‐maturing families were observed to fit a 3:1 ratio (n = 201, X2 = 0.01, P = 0.90). The early‐maturing allele was transferred to a ‘Harosoy’ background, and isolines were grown from 2002 to 2006 at Ottawa, ON. The isolines were 9 and 6 d earlier maturing in Maple Presto and Harosoy backgrounds, respectively. To determine the independence of this locus, simple sequence repeat molecular markers were used to identify three candidate regions. The gene E8 specifically mapped to linkage group C1 between Sat_404 and Satt136. No other maturity gene has been mapped to this region. The two other candidate regions were both related to maturity quantitative trait loci on molecular linkage group L and may be inadvertently selected along with early maturity. The gene symbol E8e8 has been assigned by the Soybean Genetics Committee. E8E8 results in later maturity and e8e8 results in early maturity. The earliest Harosoy maturity isoline is now rated as maturity group 000.

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.
