Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Several genes including oxalate oxidase (Oxo) are up-regulated in Triticum aestivum L. root tips exposed to Al. To better understand the function of Oxo during Al exposure, the protein level and enzyme activity were measured. The data indicate that both Oxo protein and activity are increased proportionally to the level of root growth inhibition (RGI). A high level of Oxo expression may result in excess H(2)O(2) production which could become toxic and induce cell death. However, the timing of H(2)O(2) production (observed after 24 h) indicates that it cannot be the primary cause of cell death first observed after 8 h. Moreover, at Al concentrations resulting in 50% RGI, we did not observe any cell death in the sensitive cultivar while a punctated pattern of death involving small groups of cells was found in the tolerant cultivar. This pattern was maintained for several days in the tolerant cultivar, suggesting the involvement of a cell death mechanism aimed at replacing epidermal cells intoxicated with Al while root growth is maintained. The accelerated epidermal cell turnover may represent a new detoxification mechanism helping to protect deeper cell layers of the meristematic and elongation zone essential for root growth.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
