Narrow genetic base shapes population structure and linkage disequilibrium in an industrial oilseed crop, Brassica carinata A. Braun
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Ethiopian mustard ( Brassica carinata A. Braun) is an emerging sustainable source of vegetable oil, in particular for the biofuel industry. The present study exploited genome assemblies of the Brassica diploids, Brassica nigra and Brassica oleracea, to discover over 10,000 genome-wide SNPs using genotype by sequencing of 620 B. carinata lines. The analyses revealed a SNP frequency of one every 91.7 kb, a heterozygosity level of 0.30, nucleotide diversity levels of 1.31 × 10 −05 , and the first five principal components captured only 13% molecular variation, indicating low levels of genetic diversity among the B. carinata collection. Genome bias was observed, with greater SNP density found on the B subgenome. The 620 lines clustered into two distinct sub-populations (SP1 and SP2) with the majority of accessions (88%) clustered in SP1 with those from Ethiopia, the presumed centre of origin. SP2 was distinguished by a collection of breeding lines, implicating targeted selection in creating population structure. Two selective sweep regions on B3 and B8 were detected, which harbour genes involved in fatty acid and aliphatic glucosinolate biosynthesis, respectively. The assessment of genetic diversity, population structure, and LD in the global B. carinata collection provides critical information to assist future crop improvement.

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.
