PlantBGC: Transformer for Plant BGC Discovery via Label-Free Domain Adaptation and Weak Supervision

Plant biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) encode specialized-metabolite pathways, yet curated plant BGC labels remain scarce, hindering supervised discovery at genome scale. Existing plant BGC mining tools are largely signature- and rule-driven and do not fully leverage recent advances in contextual representation learning for modeling long-range domain context and controlling false positives under strong domain shift.
