Abstract
Hybrid cattails are invasive and expanding their range in North America. Although some of the processes contributing to the spread of hybrid cattails are known, these involve established plants and it is unclear how processes operating during plant mating and seed germination contribute to the hybrid’s success. Specifically, the frequency with which the maternal parent of F1 hybrids (<i>Typha angustifolia</i>) produces hybrid offspring is not known. Also unknown is whether hybrid cattails might outcompete other cattails at during early establishment. We investigated both of these questions by sampling open-pollinated <i>T. angustifolia</i> fruits from 12 sites around Peterborough, ON, Canada; germinating seeds and growing them either with or without seedling competition; and genotyping a sample of those seedlings to examine the frequency with which T. angustifolia produces hybrid offspring and whether this frequency depends on the presence of seedling competition. We found that the minority of seedlings were F1 hybrids, but this depended on whether seedlings were exposed to competition: without competition, 14% of seedlings were hybrids but this number jumped to 29% with competition. Our data indicate that F1 hybrids are formed less frequently than <i>T. angustifolia</i>, but they benefit from competitive interactions with other cattails even at early developmental stages.

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
