Agenda
Summary from last meeting May 26th:
- Report form UN meeting- BS- need links to publication
- Updates underway to the Trait Template (Leo)
- Discussion of the id space for Crop Ontologies
- Discussion of the hierarchy of the CO Vocabs- not a problem if the terms have logical def'ns, just import as flat file.
- Mapping to TO with Agreement Maker Light - see below
- Progress on AmiGO2 browser development: http://dev.planteome.org/amigo
- Updates on the transition to Github: https://github.com/Planteome
Other Updates, etc
- OSU: Offer has been made to postdoc, waiting for confirmation, hopefully will start around the end of June, undergraduate student hired for summer, another one joining in August
- NYBG: - Offer to postdoc candidate has been made, waiting for confirmation, graduate student will be joining to help with the imaging work
- Also working with the AISO-Bisque team to generate images. Idea to do a use case study involving in situ analysis- leaf development or procambium development
Report from Bioversity team
Introduce new Crop_Ontology_Pages on the wiki (MAL)
- Marie-Angelique has created an informative page on the wiki with information about the structure and format of the CO vocabularies.
- Current structure of the Trait template (v.4)
- Future structure of the Trait Template (v.5)
Updates on work on Plant Disease Ontology and future plans for Plant Stress Ontology (Laurel)
- Discussion of overall structure and goals:
- See Google doc: Notes on the development of the Plant Stress Ontology]
- View the current version of the Trait + Stress Dev Ontologies on the AmiGO Dev browser: Trait + Stress Dev Ontology
* Discussion Points:
- Started building a Plant Disease Ontology by adding diseases and pathogens causal agents from the
Currently has branches for the causal agents, host species and plant diseases, linked by relationships
- Disease names are based on the
- Ideally we would like to have the disease causal agents and host plant species in a separate ontology or taxonomy that we would not be responsible for maintaining, such as NCBI from the , but it is too large to import into the AmiGO browser. In order to create a slim we need to have a list of the names of the pathogens
One suggestion was the
From MAL: There is also the uniprot taxonomy which has URIs for taxon along with some synonyms. Maybe it could be of interest : http://www.uniprot.org/taxonomy/
Mappings from CO to TO: MAL
