Abstract
The loss of avian genetic variation and the threat of disease lend urgency to the cryopreservation of remaining poultry stocks. However, techniques for freezing ova and embryos are not available for birds, and the recovery of genetic material has been a major obstacle to cryopreservation. To overcome this problem, we transplanted chicken ovarian tissue just after hatch with or without subsequent treatment of the recipient with an immunosuppressant. Nine of 12 hens in the nonimmunosuppressed group and 6 of 9 birds in the immunosuppressed group produced eggs, whereas 3 hens in each group produced donor-derived offspring. These results suggest that transplantation of ovarian tissue of chickens is possible if performed just after hatch. This finding should allow efficient cryopreservation of female germ cells in chickens with regeneration in live birds. In addition, ovarian transplantation could be useful for studies in genetics or developmental biology or could provide convenient access to the female germline for genetic manipulation.

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
