<i>Glomerella truncata</i> : another <i>Glomerella</i> species with an atypical mating system
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In the genus Glomerella all species studied to date do not fit the usual mating system of heterothallic ascomycetes. This study investigated the mating system of G. truncata (anamorph Colletotrichum truncatum), a pathogen responsible for lentil anthracnose. Twenty-two field isolates from the Canadian prairies were crossed in all possible combinations, including selfings. All isolates also were screened for the presence of the MAT1-1 and MAT1-2 idiomorphs by targeting small conserved areas of the MAT genes (the alpha domain and the high mobility group HMG box) with degenerate primers, and a pair of G. truncata-specific HMG primers (CT21HMG) were designed. The results of the classical mating study suggested that G. truncata is heterothallic. Isolates fell into two incompatibility groups, which is consistent with a bipolar mating system but different from what has been described in other Glomerella species. Molecular screening showed that the HMG box used as a marker for the MAT1-2 idiomorph was present in both partners of fertile crosses in G. truncata, unlike in the typical ascomycete system, but as previously described for two other Glomerella species. G. truncata therefore appears to share unusual mating system characteristics with the other Glomerella species studied to date.

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.
