Abstract
Phylogenetic analyses based on baculovirus polyhedrin nucleotide and amino acid sequences revealed two major nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) clades, designated Group I and Group II. Subsequent phylogenetic analyses have revealed three Group II subclades, designated A, B and C. Variations in amino acid frequencies determine the extent of dissimilarity for divergent but structurally and functionally conserved genes and therefore significantly influence the analysis of phylogenetic relationships. Hence, it is important to consider variations in amino acid codon usage. The Genome Hypothesis postulates that genes in any given genome use the same coding pattern with respect to synonymous codons and that genes in phylogenetically related species generally show the same pattern of codon usage. We have examined codon usage in six genes from six NPVs and found that: (1) there is significant variation in codon use by genes within the same virus genome; (2) there is significant variation in the codon usage of homologous genes encoded by different NPVs; (3) there is no correlation between the level of gene expression and codon bias in NPVs; (4) there is no correlation between gene length and codon bias in NPVs; and (5) that while codon use bias appears to be conserved between viruses that are closely related phylogenetically, the patterns of codon usage also appear to be a direct function of the GC-content of the virus-encoded genes.

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.
