Molecular and Physiological Analysis of the Powdery Mildew Antagonist <i>Pseudozyma flocculosa</i> and Related Fungi
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT A number of phenotypic and genotypic characteristics were used to ascertain the identity and diversity of Pseudozyma flocculosa, a natural antagonist of powdery mildews that has received little attention in terms of taxonomy. To this end, several putative isolates of P. flocculosa as well as several closely related species were analyzed. Ribosomal DNA sequences distinguished P. flocculosa from other Pseudozyma spp. and identified two previously unknown Pseudozyma isolates as P. flocculosa. Random amplified microsatellites revealed three distinct P. flocculosa strains among the tested isolates. Biocontrol properties and antifungal metabolite production were limited to the P. flocculosa spp. Results produced useful molecular markers to (i) distinguish P. flocculosa from other related fungi, (ii) identify different strains within this species, and (iii) aid in the construction of isolate-specific molecular tools that will assist in research and development of P. flocculosa as a biocontrol agent of powdery mildew fungi.

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.
