Chromatin accessibility in gill tissue identifies candidate genes and loci associated with aquaculture relevant traits in tilapia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) accounts for ∼9% of global freshwater finfish production however, extreme cold weather and decreasing freshwater resources has created the need to develop resilient strains. By determining the genetic bases of aquaculture relevant traits, we can genotype and breed desirable traits into farmed strains. We generated ATAC-seq and gene expression data from O. niloticus gill tissues, and through the integration of SNPs from 27 tilapia species, identified 1168 highly expressed genes (4% of all Nile tilapia genes) with highly accessible promoter regions with functional variation at transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs). Regulatory variation at these TFBSs is likely driving gene expression differences associated with tilapia gill adaptations, and differentially segregate in freshwater and euryhaline tilapia species. The generation of novel integrative data revealed candidate genes e.g., prolactin receptor 1 and claudin-h, genetic relationships, and loci associated with aquaculture relevant traits like salinity and osmotic stress acclimation.

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.
