Abstract
For each of three nuclear gene loci, intraspecific- as well as trans-specific shared polymorphisms were detected in DNA among three distantly related species in the genus Picea. Few fixed interspecific polymorphisms were observed. Allele genealogies did not match species phylogenies, and species lineages were not reciprocally monophyletic. Based on molecular clocks and morphological evidence from the fossil record, the divergence time between species was estimated at 13-20 million years (my), and a mutation rate of 2.23 × 10(-10) to 3.42 × 10(-10) per site per year was estimated. Large historical population sizes in excess of 100 000 were inferred, which would have delayed the fixation of polymorphisms. These numbers translated into allele coalescence times in the order of 10 to 18 my, which implies the sharing of polymorphisms since common ancestry. These results suggest that trans-species shared polymorphisms might be frequent at plant nuclear gene loci, leading to high allelic diversity. Such a trend is more likely in trees and plants characterized by ecological and life-history determinants favoring large population sizes such as an outcrossing mating system, wind pollination, and a dominant position in ecosystem. These polymorphisms also call for caution in estimating congeneric species phylogenies from nuclear gene sequences in such plant groups.

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
