Abstract
The effect of ecdysone on the puffing activity of the polytene chromosomes of Ceratitis capitata has been studied in organ cultures of late-larval salivary glands. Culture of glands from 120-h-old larvae (puff stage 1) in the presence of ecdysone resulted in the initiation of the late-larval puffing cycle that is normally observed in 145-h-old larvae (puff stage 4). During a 7-h period in the presence of ecdysone, the puffing patterns of most loci resembled the in vivo patterns observed in the period between puff stages 4 and 10, indicating that the first puffing cycle can be initiated by the hormone and proceed almost to completion, in vitro. Culture of salivary glands in the presence of ecdysone and a protein-synthesis inhibitor, as well as ecdysone withdrawal and readdition experiments, indicated that most of the ecdysone-regulated puffs could be categorized into three classes: (i) the puffs that were suppressed immediately by ecdysone, even in the absence of protein synthesis; (ii) the puffs that were induced directly by ecdysone; and (iii) the puffs that were induced indirectly by ecdysone, that is, they were induced after a lag period of a few hours and required protein synthesis for their induction.

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
