Ektaphelenchoides factum n. sp. in Pinus taeda from the USA and E. pini in Pinus koraiensis from China
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Summary The genus Ektaphelenchoides is a diverse group of nematodes; they are either inhabitants of trees or present in the rhizosphere of economical plants. Members of the genus have ecological relevance in terms of being associated with insects and predators of other nematodes. In the present study, a new Ektaphelenchoides species, E. factum n. sp., is described and illustrated. The new species was isolated from a log sample of Pinus taeda imported from the USA. It is characterised by the lateral field with three incisures, stylet distinctly tripartite. Females having a vulval flap, the anus and rectum indistinct, and the tail (posterior part of body) filiform. Males having arcuate and 21.5 (19.4-22.9) μm long spicules, the lamina of the spicule is smoothly curved to distal end, condylus well developed with a broadly rounded tip, rostrum triangular with finely rounded tip and cucullus absent, tail arcuate and conical with terminus bearing a sharply pointed mucron. The new species is different from other Ektaphelenchoides species in having a vulval flap. Molecular characterisation and phylogenetic studies also supported its unique status. In addition, a Chinese native population of E. pini, detected in Pinus koraiensis branches from Liaoning province, P.R. China, is described.

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.
