Inferring spatially resolved gene expression from histology images offers a cost-effective complement to spatial transcriptomics (ST). However, existing methods reduce this task to a simple morphology-to-expression mapping, where visual similarity does not guarantee molecular consistency. Meanwhile, single-cell data has amassed rich resources far surpassing the scale of ST data, yet it remains underexplored in vision-omics modeling. Furthermore, current approaches commit to a monolithic paradigm with bottlenecks, unable to balance expressive flexibility with biological fidelity. To bridge these gaps, we propose DUET, a novel dual-paradigm framework that synergizes parametric prediction and memory-based retrieval under cellular inductive priors. DUET implements a parallel regression-retrieval paradigm, adaptively reconciling the outputs of its complementary pathways. To mitigate aleatoric vision ambiguity, we incorporate large-scale single-cell references to impose molecular states as biological constraints for faithful learning. Building upon structural refinement, we further design a lightweight adapter to dynamically assign branch preference across spatial contexts to achieve optimal performance. Extensive experiments on three public datasets across varied gene scales demonstrate that DUET achieves SOTA performance, with consistent gains contributed by each proposed component.
