Susceptibility to <i>Stemphylium vesicarium</i> of asparagus, onion, pear, and rye in Canada
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Diseases caused by Stemphylium vesicarium are an increasing problem in the major asparagus and onion production regions of eastern and central Canada. Replicated and repeated controlled environment and field trials were conducted in Ontario to assess the disease reaction of asparagus and onion cultivars to determine if isolates from one crop can cross-infect other hosts, to assess the variation of disease symptoms among cultivars of onion and of asparagus, and to assess the ability of the pathogen to survive in a non-host species. All of the varieties of asparagus and onion assessed were susceptible to infection by S. vesicarium. There were small differences in susceptibility among varieties and in aggressiveness among isolates. These differences were not strongly associated with host crop. Onion cultivars that developed higher numbers of lesions often had lower levels of leaf dieback and vice versa. This indicated that resistance to infection was independent of susceptibility to development of dieback symptoms. In asparagus, infection on spears was not consistently correlated with severity on ferns. All isolates from asparagus and onion produced typical symptoms on wounded, but not unwounded, pear fruit. Finally, the pathogen was shown to colonize and sporulate on necrotic leaves of autumn rye, which is often used as a cover crop in asparagus fields. Stemphylium vesicarium can cross-infect asparagus and onion.

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.
