Agenda
New Taxon constraints added to PO
Suggest adding a new relation between the morphology trait and a quality trait
Many of these are currently is a children resulting in dual parentage
e.g. pericarp texture (TO:0002623):
- is_a pericarp morphology trait (TO:0000945)
- is_a fruit quality trait (TO:0002728)
Harmonization between TO and PO
PO defines classes with sometimes a lot of synonyms (broad and narrow). e.g. PO fruit (http://browser.planteome.org/amigo/term/PO:0009001) In TO, the classes 'fruit weight' and 'grain weight' exist. How to harmonise that?
- use subClassOf instead of equivalentClass for the DP when narrow synonyms
- keep only 'fruit weight'. 'grain weight' will then become a synonym of 'fruit weight'
- keep 'fruit weight' in TO. 'grain weight' will then be in CO and imported in TO. The CO class 'grain weight' will use the same DP than 'fruit weight' + a taxon constraint. Related question: should all the CO class have a taxon constraint? or only the classes with a species-specific entity (i.e. synonyms narrow or broad) should have one?
CO mappings
- Eight crops have been mapped to TO so far: lentil, cassava, wheat and rice are part of the current Planteome release 1.0
- New crops added: sweet potato, maize, soybean and pigeonpea
- Statistics are available here: [[1]]
- Attempt of a visualization: [[2]] (avoid this if you have ocean sickness!). Feedback is welcome
Redirect from old Plant Ontology Site
- The old Plant Ontology PO site is not maintained anymore and is going into archive
- All AmiGO traffic on http://plantontology.org to has been redirected to http://browser.planteome.org
- The main drupal site has been renamed http://archive.plantontology.org/ including the Amigo browser, so you can still visit it
- For updates, follow http://planteome.org
