Dynamic Evolution of NLR Genes in Dalbergioids
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Dalbergioid is a large group within the family Fabaceae that consists of diverse plant species distributed in distinct biogeographic realms. Here, we have performed a comprehensive study to understand the evolution of the nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeats (NLRs) gene family in Dalbergioids. The evolution of gene families in this group is affected by a common whole genome duplication that occurred approximately 58 million years ago, followed by diploidization that often leads to contraction. Our study suggests that since diploidization, the NLRome of all groups of Dalbergioids is expanding in a clade-specific manner with fewer exceptions. Phylogenetic analysis and classification of NLRs revealed that they belong to seven subgroups. Specific subgroups have expanded in a species-specific manner, leading to divergent evolution. Among the Dalbergia clade, the expansion of NLRome in six species of the genus Dalbergia was observed, with the exception of Dalbergia odorifera, where a recent contraction of NLRome occurred. Similarly, members of the Pterocarpus clade genus Arachis revealed a large-scale expansion in the diploid species. In addition, the asymmetric expansion of NLRome was observed in wild and domesticated tetraploids after recent duplications in the genus Arachis. Our analysis strongly suggests that whole genome duplication followed by tandem duplication after divergence from a common ancestor of Dalbergioids is the major cause of NLRome expansion. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first ever study to provide insight toward the evolution of NLR genes in this important tribe. In addition, accurate identification and characterization of NLR genes is a substantial contribution to the repertoire of resistances among members of the Dalbergioids species.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
