Abstract
The likelihood that a host will be susceptible to infection is influenced by the interaction of diverse biotic and abiotic factors. As a result, substantial experimental replication and scalability are required to identify the contributions of and interactions between the host, and the environment, and biotic factors such as the microbiome. For example, pathogen infection success is known to vary by host genotype, microbiota strain identity and dose, and pathogen dose. Elucidating the interactions between these factors in vivo has been challenging because testing combinations of these variables quickly becomes experimentally intractable. Here, we describe a novel high throughput plant growth system (MYCroplanters) to test how multiple host, microbiota, and pathogen variables predict host health. Using an Arabidopsis-Pseudomonas host-microbiota-pathogen model, we found that host genotype and bacterial strain order of arrival predict host susceptibility to infection, but pathogen and microbiota dose can overwhelm these effects. Host susceptibility to infection is therefore driven by complex interactions between multiple factors that can both mask and compensate for each other. However, regardless of host or inoculation conditions, the ratio of pathogen to microbiota emerged as a consistent predictor of disease. Our results demonstrate that high-throughput tools like MYCroplanters can isolate interacting drivers host susceptibility to disease. Increasing the scale at which we can screen drivers of disease outcomes, such as microbiome community structure, will facilitate both disease predictions as well as engineering solutions for medicine and agricultural applications.

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 it
