The potato – Phytophthora infestans interaction transcriptome
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Late blight, caused by the oomycete Phytophthora infestans, is one of the most serious constraints to potato production worldwide. An understanding of the basic mechanisms of infection by the pathogen and of effective defence by the host, are required for informed strategies seeking either targeted chemical control of the pathogen or the development of durable resistance in the plant. An initial insight into the molecular events underpinning P. infestans – potato interactions can be gained by determining the interaction transcriptome, the sum of the transcripts from both host and pathogen that are produced during their association. To this end, projects with expressed sequence tags are ongoing and provide an overview of the genes expressed in particular growth conditions, cell types, and developmental stages, in both potato and P. infestans, and allow significant sampling of genes expressed as part of the interaction transcriptome. As many genes required for pathogenicity or resistance are transcriptionally induced, methods to enrich for up-regulated genes, such as the powerful technique of suppression subtractive hybridization based on polymerase chain reaction, are also being used to identify candidate genes required in P. infestans for infection of the host or in potato for defence against the pathogen.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.
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.
