Hirsutella thompsonii and Pochonia chlamydosporia (Syn. Verticillium chlamydosporium) Mycelia Growth and Predation on Panagrellus redivivus
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This research aimed to evaluate the nematophagous ability of 4077-Verticillium chlamydosporium var. chlamydosporium and 4466-Hirsutella thompsonii isolates and relate mycelia growth to the influence provoked by movement of nematodes. Each fungus grew in PDA (potato, dextrose, agar) medium end up to pure colonization. Then, ten mycelia plugs of 8 mm diameter were removed from colony borders and transferred to the center of ten Petri plates containing water-agar 2% medium. These plates were previously divided into four quadrants that received a number of 25 individuals of free-living nematodes (Panagrellus redivivus), composing a total of 100 nematodes per plate. Evaluations started after 24 hours of interaction, considering predation percentage and mycelia growth as stimuli of nematodes presence. Results showed growing predation performance to both isolates, being higher for V. chlamydosporium var. chlamydosporium since from first evaluation time, controlling more than 50% of nematode population initially added. Its predation potential was 39.2%, 38.4% and 48.35% higher than H. thompsonii at first, second and third evaluation day, respectively. Generally, nematodes did not stimulate mycelia growth, unless for H. thompsonii at 72 hours of interaction compared to control plates (without nematodes). Stress resulting from isolates transference from PDA to water-agar 2% resulted in sparse mycelia growth and it could have affected the predation performance of H. thompsonii that controlled nematodes in low levels throughout experiment. Independently of predation level, pictures revealed that both isolates has ability to control P. redivivus through hyphae penetration.

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.
