Genome-wide association studies using multi-models and multi-SNP datasets provide new insights into pasmo resistance in flax
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Introduction Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) is an economically important crop due to its oil and fiber. However, it is prone to various diseases, including pasmo caused by the fungus Septoria linicola. Methods In this study, we conducted field evaluations of 445 flax accessions over a five-year period (2012–2016) to assess their resistance to pasmo A total of 246,035 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were used for genetic analysis. Four statistical models, including the single-locus model GEMMA and the multi-locus models FarmCPU, mrMLM, and 3VmrMLM, were assessed to identify quantitative trait nucleotides (QTNs) associated with pasmo resistance. Results We identified 372 significant QTNs or 132 tag QTNs associated with pasmo resistance from five pasmo resistance datasets (PAS2012–PAS2016 and the 5-year average, namely PASmean) and three genotypic datasets (the all SNPs/ALL, the gene-based SNPs/GB and the RGA-based SNPs/RGAB). The tag QTNs had R2 values of 0.66–16.98% from the ALL SNP dataset, 0.68–20.54%from the GB SNP dataset, and 0.52–22.42% from the RGAB SNP dataset. Of these tag QTNs, 93 were novel. Additionally, 37 resistance gene analogs (RGAs)co-localizing with 39 tag QTNs were considered as potential candidates for controlling pasmo resistance in flax and 50 QTN-by-environment interactions(QEIs) were identified to account for genes by environmental interactions. Nine RGAs were predicted as candidate genes for ten QEIs. Discussion Our results suggest that pasmo resistance in flax is polygenic and potentially influenced by environmental factors. The identified QTNs provide potential targets for improving pasmo resistance in flax breeding programs. This study sheds light on the genetic basis of pasmo resistance and highlights the importance of considering both genetic and environmental factors in breeding programs for flax.

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.
