Molecular phylogenetic analyses of tissue coccidia (sarcocystidae; apicomplexa) based on nuclear 18s RDNA and mitochondrial COI sequences confirms the paraphyly of the genus Hammondia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
SUMMARY Partial mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (mt COI) sequences were generated from: Toxoplasma gondii (strains CTG, GTI, MAS, ME49, PTG, TgCatBr5, TgCat, Br64, TgCgCal, TgToucan); Neospora caninum (Strain NC1); Hammondia hammondi (Strain H.H–20); H. heydorni; H . cf. triffittae; Cystoisospora felis; C. suis; C. canis; C. rivolta; C . cf. ohioensis; Caryospora bigenetica; Sarcocystis rileyi ; and S. neurona . Nuclear 18S rDNA sequences were generated for H. heydorni, H. hammondi, C. suis, C. canis, C. felis, C. rivolta, C . cf. ohioensis, S. neurona , and S. rileyi . Aligned, concatenated 18S rDNA and COI sequences were Bayesian analysed using partitioned nucleotide substitution models [HKY + I + G for 18S; GTR + I + G codon (code = metmt) for COI]. Phylogenetic hypotheses supported a monophyletic Sarcocystidae and its subfamilie with two major clades within the Toxoplasmatinae: (1) a monophyletic clade of Cystoisospora spp. with Nephroisospora eptesici ; and (2) a clade of Toxoplasma, Neospora and Hammondia . Within the latter, Hammondia was shown to be paraphyletic; H. heydorni and H. triffittae were monophyletic with N. caninum [canine definitive hosts (DHs)], whereas H. hammondi was monophyletic with T. gondii (feline DHs). A new genus is erected to resolve the paraphyly of the genus Hammondia confirmed using mt COI and combined 18S/COI sequence datasets.

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.
