Field evaluation for rhizomania resistance of transgenic sugar beet events based on gene silencing
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Rhizomania is one of the most damaging and widespread diseases in the major sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L. subsp. vulgaris) growing regions worldwide. The causal agent, Beet necrotic yellow vein virus, is transmitted by a plasmodiophorid vector, Polymyxa betae Keskin. In this study, the inhibition of BNYVV multiplication was evaluated, under field conditions, in six sugar beet transgenic events generated based on gene silencing of the major coat protein gene (CP21). Phenotypic criteria, including scoring for disease symptoms and an immunoassay for viral accumulation, indicated that the transgenic events were less susceptible to rhizomania and had lower virus titre rates than non-transgenic plants of the susceptible cultivar ‘9597’. Disease severity and virus titres were comparable to the resistant cultivar ‘Dorothea’, which carries the Rz1-resistance gene and was bred through traditional means. This study provides a proof of concept for the effectiveness of the gene-silencing mechanism for introducing rhizomania resistance in sugar beet at the field level.

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.
