Production of donor-derived offspring after ovarian transplantation between Muscovy (Cairina moschata) and Pekin (Anas platyrhynchos) ducks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Transplantation of ovarian tissue between different breeds of chickens or Japanese quail can result in normal egg production and give rise to donor-derived offspring with a high frequency. The feasibility of interspecific ovarian transplantation was evaluated by transplanting ovarian tissue from Muscovy ducks to Pekin ducks just after hatch, with subsequent treatment of the recipients with an immunosuppressant. Among the 8 mature Pekin ducks that had received ovarian tissue from Muscovy ducklings, 2 produced fertile eggs when mated with Muscovy drakes, and one of these produced only Muscovy ducks, which were derived from the transplanted Muscovy ovary. The other produced mule ducks that were hybrids of the host Pekin duck and the Muscovy drake. Further development of interspecific transplantation of ovaries may provide a simple method for the conservation and propagation of endangered birds.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
