Current understanding of lamprey chemosensory systems
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Chemoreception plays a central role in the survival and reproduction of many animals in aquatic environments. Fishes use three chemosensory systems, the olfactory system, the diffuse chemosensory system, and the taste (gustatory) system. While these are present in the sea lamprey, a majority of chemosensory research has focused on olfaction. This review summarizes current knowledge of the lamprey chemosensory systems, including stimuli, receptors, neural pathways and behavioural roles of the chemosensory stimuli. A description of the olfactory sensory neurons located deep within the nostril, of synaptic pathways within the brain and of modulatory mechanisms that underly the translation of olfaction to movement are included. The lamprey diffuse chemosensory system may enable solitary chemosensory cells on the skin of the mouth, nostril, gill, and tailfin to function as sentinels for rapid responses to chemical stimuli. While little is known abouth the lamprey taste system, taste buds are located within the pharynx, thus enabling chemosensory responses to material that has entered the body cavity. Knowledge and understanding of function of these three chemosensory systems supports the management of sea lamprey populations.

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.
