# Final Adversarial Peer Review

**Verdict: unconditional accept on research integrity. No release blocker remains.**

The final corrections resolve the two issues from the conditional review:

- The abstract now conditions the T2722 implication explicitly on an authenticated T2722 comparator and sound sample custody.
- `limitations.md` and ledger row `GEN-013` consistently describe RD2's Geisha comparator and SL09 accession as undisclosed; neither presupposes a T2722 reference.
- The direct Port2050 product URL is synchronized across the bibliography, evidence ledger, and source index. The page was directly inspected in a browser, and the record honestly discloses the command-line 404 and absence of a retained snapshot.
- The Feran bibliography note now records both the top 2025 labels and corresponding lower 2026 headings.

The mechanical audit passes: 51 cited keys resolve to 51 bibliography entries; all cited keys appear in the 69-row evidence ledger; all 113 exclusions have reasons; no duplicate canonical DOI or URL remains; no factual-looking uncited paragraph is detected; and the 9,618-word paper remains within the required range.

The central conclusion is release-safe and appropriately limited: one reported tree was unlike RD2's undisclosed Geisha comparator and near an undisclosed SL09 reference; **SL9-like** and **not authenticated as T2722** are justified, while exact historical SL9, population-wide identity, a Kenya-to-Peru route, intrinsic agronomic or sensory traits, and a causal name premium remain unproved.

This acceptance covers the research record, claim calibration, citations, bibliography, ledger, inventory, and stated limitations. It does not supersede separate visual or document-rendering QA.
