Abstract
Antifreeze activity is induced by cold temperatures in winter rye (Secale cereale) leaves. The activity arises from six antifreeze proteins that accumulate in the apoplast of winter rye leaves during cold acclimation. The individual antifreeze proteins are similar to pathogenesis-related proteins, including glucanases, chitinases, and thaumatin-like proteins. The objective of this study was to study the regulation of antifreeze activity in response to ethylene and salicyclic acid, which are known regulators of pathogenesis-related proteins induced by pathogens. Nonacclimated plants treated with salicylic acid accumulated apoplastic proteins with no antifreeze activity. In contrast, when nonacclimated plants were exposed to ethylene, both antifreeze activity and the concentration of apoplastic protein increased in rye leaves. Immunoblotting revealed that six of the seven accumulated apoplastic proteins consisted of two glucanases, two chitinases, and two thaumatin-like proteins. The ethylene-releasing agent ethephon and the ethylene precursor 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate also induced high levels of antifreeze activity at 20 degrees C, and this effect could be blocked by the ethylene inhibitor AgNO(3). When intact rye plants were exposed to 5 degrees C, endogenous ethylene production and antifreeze activity were detected within 12 and 48 h of exposure to cold, respectively. Rye plants exposed to drought produced both ethylene and antifreeze activity within 24 h. We conclude that ethylene is involved in regulating antifreeze activity in winter rye in response to cold and drought.

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
