Abstract
Hydrogen cyanide (HCN) is a secondary metabolite produced by many antagonistic Pseudomonas species. In the present study, the gene cluster encoding HCN synthesis in a newly isolated Pseudomonas fluorescens strain, In5, from South Greenland was investigated. Sequence analysis showed that the Greenlandic hcn gene cluster comprises a novel hcn cluster. Transposon mutagenesis of strain In5 resulted in mutants In5-2E1 and In5-1H7 with no production of HCN, and mutant In5-6B9 with reduced HCN synthesis. In mutant In5-2E1, the transposon was inserted into the hcnC gene; in mutant In5-1H7, the Tn5 insertion was found in a region upstream of a putative malate:quinone oxidoreductase gene (mqo); and in mutant In5-6B9, the transposon disrupted a probable enoyl-CoA hydratase/isomerase gene. In vitro inhibition experiments with In5 (wild type) and In5-2E1 (mutant) showed that in nitrogen-rich Luria-Bertani medium, strain In5 but not the hcn mutant In5-2E1 produced HCN and inhibited the growth of hyphae of Rhizoctonia solani and Pythium aphanidermatum . In contrast, when cultivating the strains in the carbohydrate-rich potato dextrose medium, neither of the strains produced any HCN, and thus, they were unable to inhibit hyphal growth of fungi. These experiments strongly indicate that the synthesis of HCN is highly dependent on the growth medium used.

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
