Metschnikowia shivogae sp. nov., a yeast species associated with insects of morning glory flowers in East Africa
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The novel species Metschnikowia shivogae is described to accommodate three isolates recovered from insects of morning glory flowers at two localities in East Africa. The isolates differ slightly in rDNA ITS and D1/D2 large-subunit sequences and one isolate featured a two-base heterogeneity that might be the result of recombination between two variant rDNAs. M. shivogae is a sister species to Metschnikowia aberdeeniae and shares the same habitat. The reproductive boundaries of M. aberdeeniae, which were not clear in the past, have now been elucidated further. The type strain of Metschnikowia shivogae sp. nov. is strain SUB 04-310.1(T) (h(+); =CBS 10292(T) =NRRL Y-27924(T)) and the allotype is strain UWOPS 07-203.2 (h(-); =CBS 10770 =NRRL Y-48447).

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.
