Hybrid Genome Assembly of a Major Quantitative Disease Resistance Locus in Soybean Toward <i>Fusarium graminearum</i>
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Schwabe [teleomorph: Gibberella zeae (Schweintiz) Petch] has been identified as a pathogen of soybean [ (L.) Merr.] causing seed, seedling damping-off and root rot in North America. A major quantitative disease resistance locus (QDRL) that contributed 38.5% of the phenotypic variance toward in soybean was previously identified through mapping of a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from a cross between 'Wyandot' and PI 567301B. This major QDRL mapped to chromosome 8 to a predicted 305 kb region harboring 36 genes. This locus maps near the locus for soybean cyst nematode (SCN) and the locus contributing to seed coat color. Long-read sequencing of the region was completed and variations in gene sequence and gene order compared with the 'Williams 82' reference were identified. Molecular markers were developed for genes within this region and mapped in the original population, slightly narrowing the region of interest. Analyses of the hybrid genome reassembly using three previously published bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) sequences (BAC56G2, BAC104J7, and BAC77G7-a) combined with RNA-sequencing narrowed the region making candidate gene identification possible. The markers within this region may be used for marker-assisted selection (MAS). There were 10 differentially expressed genes between resistant and susceptible lines, with four of these candidates also located within the genomic interval defined by the flanking markers. These genes included an actin-related protein 2/3 complex subunit, an unknown protein, a hypothetical protein, and a chalcone synthase 3.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

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.
