Rapid and Repeatable Elimination of a Parental Genome-Specific DNA Repeat (pGc1R-1a) in Newly Synthesized Wheat Allopolyploids
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Recent work in the Triticum-Aegilops complex demonstrates that allopolyploidization is associated with an array of changes in low-copy coding and noncoding sequences. Nevertheless, the behavior and fate of repetitive DNA elements that constitute the bulk of nuclear DNA of these plant species is less clear following allopolyploidy. To gain further insight into the genomic events that accompany allopolyploid formation, we investigated fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) patterns of a parental-specific, tandem DNA repeat (pGc1R-1) on three sets of newly synthesized amphiploids with different parental species. It was found that drastic physical elimination of pGc1R-1 copies occurred in all three amphiploids in early generations. DNA gel-blot analysis confirmed the FISH data and estimates indicated that approximately 70-90% of the copies of the pGc1R-1 repeat family were eliminated from the amphiploids by the second to third selfed generations. Thus, allopolyploidy in Triticum-Aegilops can be accompanied by rapid and extensive elimination of parental-specific repetitive DNA sequences, which presumably play a role in the initial stabilization of the nascent amphiploid plants.

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.
