Comparison between Q <sub>ST</sub> and Φ <sub>ST</sub> indices in an endangered <i>Boswellia serrata</i> Roxb: Implications for conservation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Boswellia serrata , an economically important indigenous tree of dry deciduous forests, provides oleoresin gum of pharmaceutical significance and excellent pulp for paper industries, but faces threat to extinction due to poor natural regeneration and commercial exploitation. 240 individuals of the species representing 12 locations of its natural distribution in central India were investigated to compare the genetic differentiation indices, Q ST for GBH and wood fiber length and ϕ ST for neutral (RAPD+ISSR) markers. The comparison for paired locations was more informative than for metapopulation. The most paired locations were either under the stabilizing selection (Q ST (L) < Φ ST (L)) or in the genetic drift (Q ST (L) = Φ ST (L)) whereas a relatively small number of paired locations was under the divergent selection (Q S T (L) > Φ ST (L)). The comparison for the metapopulation generating only a single trend of Q ST (P) > Φ ST (P) is, therefore, misleading. For conservation, the genetically deficit locations (Q ST (L) < Φ ST (L) and Q ST (L) = Φ ST (L)) of B. serrata warrant for reinforcement of their genetic diversity by introduction of genotypes from other genetically divergent locations (Q ST (L) > Φ ST (L)), which would check the fragmentation and genetic drift, resulting in reproductive vigour, natural regeneration and reverse the endangered status of the species.

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.
