Abstract
The primary plant cell wall is a hydrated meshwork of polysaccharides that is strong enough to withstand large mechanical stresses imposed by turgor while remaining pliant in ways that permit growth. To understand how its macromolecular architecture produces its complex mechanical properties, Zhang et al.1 computationally assembled a realistic network of cellulose microfibrils, hemicellulose, and pectin. The simulated wall responded to computationally applied stress like the real wall on which it was based. The model showed the location and chemical identity of stress-bearing components. It showed that cellulose microfibril interactions and movements dominated the wall’s mechanical behavior, while hemicellulose and pectin had surprisingly minor effects.

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 it
