Multidisciplinary Evaluation of New Apple Cultivars:The NE-183 Regional Project 1999 Planting
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The NE-183 regional project was established in 1994 with its primary objective to evaluate horticultural characteristics and pest susceptibility of new apple ( Malus × domesticaBorkh.) cultivars and advanced selections at numerous locations throughout the United States and Canada to determine both limitations and positive attributes of these cultivars. The project was established because many new apple cultivars were available but there was no established mechanism to provide unbiased evaluation to aid orchardists in making informed decisions about what apple cultivars have the greatest likelihood of being successful. There were two types of plantings: horticulture and pest susceptibility. Pest susceptibility plantings were intended to assess natural susceptibility of cultivars to insects and diseases. The horticulture plantings were intended to evaluate horticultural characteristics, fruit quality and sensory characteristics of the cultivars. The first NE-183 cultivar planting was established in 1995 at 28 locations in 18 states or Canadian provinces. A second group of 23 cultivars was planted in 1999. This article summarizes the rationale for initiating the NE-183 project, and lists the cultivars, locations and overall project design for the 1999 planting.

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.
