Detection and Differentiation of <i>Xanthomonas translucens</i> Pathovars <i>translucens</i> and <i>undulosa</i> from Wheat and Barley by Duplex Quantitative PCR
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Two probe-based quantitative PCR (qPCR) systems, namely P-Xtt and P-Xtu, were developed to diagnose cereal bacterial leaf streak pathogens Xanthomonas translucens pv. translucens and pv. undulosa, respectively. P-Xtt is specific to pv. translucens, and P-Xtu is specific to pv. undulosa, pv. cerealis, pv. secalis, and pv. pistaciae. P-Xtt and P-Xtu worked on all accessible strains of pv. translucens and pv. undulosa, respectively. Both systems could detect 100 copies of the target gBlock DNA. The two systems could be used in both singleplex qPCR and duplex qPCR with similar efficiencies. On genomic DNA from strains of various X. translucens pathovars, both singleplex and duplex qPCR could specifically detect and differentiate pv. translucens and pv. undulosa. The duplex qPCR could detect pv. translucens and pv. undulosa from genomic DNA of 1,000 bacterial cells. On infected barley and wheat grain samples and on one infected wheat leaf sample, the duplex qPCR showed similar efficiency compared to a previously published qPCR system but with the additional capability of pathovar differentiation. The duplex qPCR system developed in this study will be useful in studies on bacterial leaf streak and detection/differentiation of the pathogens.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
