Uniform Soybean Tests Northern Region 2021
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Uniform Soybean Tests, Northern Region, have been in place since 1941. The tests evaluate yield, disease resistance, and quality traits of public breeding lines from northern states of the U.S. and Canadian provinces. The purpose of The Uniform Soybean Tests is to critically evaluate the best of the experimental soybean lines developed by federal and state research personnel in the U.S. and Canada, for their potential release as new varieties. A test is established for each of ten maturity groups. Uniform Test 00 includes maturity Group 00 strains adapted to production in the northern fringe of the present area of soybean production. Uniform Tests 0 through IV include later maturing strains adapted to locations progressively further south in the North Central States and areas of similar latitude. Each year new selections are added and others that have been sufficiently tested are dropped from the tests. The summary of performance of strains in Uniform Tests 00 through IV in the northern region is included in this report. The USDA-ARS Soybean Production Research Unit, P.O. BOX 345, STONEVILLE, MS 38776, issues the report on Uniform Tests IVS through VIII in the southern states. Data from the Uniform Soybean Tests are the basis for decisions on the regional release of soybean varieties. Preliminary Tests are grown at a limited number of locations throughout the region to evaluate the experimental strains for one year before they are dropped or advanced in the Uniform Tests. Uniform Tests are grown at more locations with more replications than Preliminary Tests. These datasets contains data tables formatted for print publication in the Uniform Soybean Tests Northern Region annual reports, which are available through Purdue at http://docs.lib.purdue.edu/ars and from the USDA at https://ars.usda.gov/mwa/lafayette/cppcru/ust.

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.
