A molecular investigation of the dynamics of piscine orthoreovirus in a wild sockeye salmon community on the Central Coast of British Columbia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Many Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus sp.) populations are declining due to the action of multiple stressors, possibly including microparasites such as piscine orthoreovirus (PRV), whose host range and infection dynamics in natural systems are poorly understood. First, in comparing three methods for RNA isolation, I find different fish tissues require specific approaches to yield optimal RNA for molecular PRV surveillance. Next, I describe PRV infections among six fish species and three life-stages of sockeye salmon (O. nerka) over three years in Rivers Inlet, BC. Screening reveals a 3% overall prevalence of PRV in this system, along with the first evidence of PRV in Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma) and eulachon (Thaleichthys pacificus). Among sockeye, the prevalence declined by 4% from the fry to smolt stages for the 2014 and 2015 cohorts.
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.
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.
