Isolation and characterization of two lytic cold-active bacteriophages infecting <i>Pseudomonas fluorescens</i> from the Napahai plateau wetland
Bibliographic record
Abstract
As the "kidneys of the Earth", wetlands play important roles as biodiversity reservoirs, in water purification, and in flood control. In this study, 2 lytic cold-active bacteriophages, named VW-6S and VW-6B, infecting Pseudomonas fluorescens W-6 cells from the Napahai plateau wetland in China were isolated and characterized. Electron microscopy showed that both VW-6S and VW-6B had an icosahedral head (66.7 and 61.1 nm, respectively) and a long tail (8.3 nm width × 233.3 nm length and 11.1 nm width × 166.7 nm length, respectively). The bacteriophages VW-6S and VW-6B were classified as Siphoviridae and had an approximate genome size of 30-40 kb. The latent and burst periods of VW-6S were 60 and 30 min, whereas those of VW-6B were 30 and 30 min, respectively. The optimal pH values for the bacteriophages VW-6S and VW-6B were 8.0 and 10.0, respectively, and their activity decreased rapidly at temperatures higher than 60 °C. These cold-active bacteriophages provide good materials for further study of cold-adaptation mechanisms and interaction with the host P. fluorescens.

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.
