On the Species Identification of Korean Geoduck Clam (Panopea sp. 1) Based on the Morphological and Molecular Evidence
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The geoduck clam is a high-value species in South Korea. However, the molecular and morphological characteristics of geoduck clams from the southern coast of South Korea remain unexamined. The accurate identification of native geoduck clams is crucial for their conservation and management. Therefore, this study used a combination of molecular and morphological analyses to characterize native geoduck clams from the southern coast of South Korea. Based on complete mitochondrial genome and morphological analyses, the native species of geoduck clam from this study area was identified as Panopea sp. 1. The complete mitochondrial genome sequencing of Panopea sp. 1 revealed a total of 16,225 bp in length with 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA genes). It was also shown that Panopea sp. 1 belongs to the family Hiatellidae based on a phylogenetic analysis tree with 11 bivalve species. In particular, Panopea sp. 1 is closely related to three other Panopea species (Panopea sp., Panopea abrupta, and Panopea japonica). The phylogenetic analysis correlated with the morphological analysis. Overall, this is the first reliable record of Panopea sp. 1 in South Korea. These findings provide a basis for accurate species identification based on morphological characteristics and complete mitochondrial genome sequencing.

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.
