Pangenome analysis of transposable element insertion polymorphisms reveals features underlying cold tolerance in rice
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Transposable elements (TEs) introduce genetic and epigenetic variability, contributing to gene expression patterns that drive adaptive evolution in plants. Here, we investigate TE architecture and its effect on cold tolerance in rice. By analyzing a pangenome graph and the resequencing data of 165 rice accessions, we identify 30,316 transposable element insertion polymorphism (TIP) sites, highlighting significant diversity among polymorphic TEs (pTEs). We observe that pTEs exhibit increased H3K27me3 enrichment, suggesting a potential role in epigenetic differentiation under cold stress and in the transcriptional regulation of the cold response. We identify 26,914 TEs responsive to cold stress from transcriptome data, indicating their potential significance in regulatory networks for this response. Our TIP-GWAS analysis reveal two cold tolerance genes OsCACT and OsPTR. The biological functions of these genes are confirmed using knockout and overexpression lines. Our web tool ( https://cbi.gxu.edu.cn/RICEPTEDB/ ) makes all pTEs available to researchers for further analysis. These findings provide valuable targets for breeding cold-tolerant rice varieties, indicating the potential importance of pTEs in crop enhancement.

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.
