Genomic history and ecology of the geographic spread of rice
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT Rice ( Oryza sativa ) is one of the world’s most important food crops. We reconstruct the history of rice dispersal in Asia using whole-genome sequences of >1,400 landraces, coupled with geographic, environmental, archaeobotanical and paleoclimate data. We also identify extrinsic factors that impact genome diversity, with temperature a leading abiotic factor. Originating ∼9,000 years ago in the Yangtze Valley, rice diversified into temperate and tropical japonica during a global cooling event ∼4,200 years ago. Soon after, tropical rice reached Southeast Asia, where it rapidly diversified starting ∼2,500 yBP. The history of indica rice dispersal appears more complicated, moving into China ∼2,000 yBP. Reconstructing the dispersal history of rice and its climatic correlates may help identify genetic adaptation associated with the spread of a key domesticated species. One sentence summary We reconstructed the ancient dispersal of rice in Asia and identified extrinsic factors that impact its genomic diversity.

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.
