The mytilid bivalve <i>Mytilus trossulus</i> exhibits area-specific proportions of heteromorphic spermatozoa in the Sea of Japan
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The present study is devoted to a comparison of the structure and quantitative ratio of heterogeneous spermatozoa of native wild mussels Mytilus trossulus Gould, 1850, collected in four areas of the Peter the Great Bay of the Sea of Japan (the northwestern part of the Pacific Ocean). The mussels were identified as M. trossulus by shell appearance, and the species was confirmed by sequencing the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I gene (COI). Heteromorphic spermatozoa were found; namely, a total of eight morphs (SPERM1–SPERM8) in M. trossulus. Surprisingly, some of the detected sperm morphs overlap morphologically with the sperms of other mytilids such as M. edulis, Crenomytilus (M.) grayanus and M. coruscus. Possible reasons for this phenomenon are discussed. In each geographic area, the ‘quantitative proportions of heterogeneous spermatozoa’ (QPHS) were unique. It has been suggested that the QPHS score can be considered in the context of its applicability as a biological marker for finding optimal mussel rearing sites.

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.
