These items have been on the SF tracker between 3 months and two year. None of them are controversial. Suggest that all curators take a look at each SF item and comment on whether or not they agree with the suggestions below. That way, we can devote our meeting time to more difficult terms.


dispersed meristematic cell (2007-02-14, donghui) – see proposed solution on SF

pericarp vascular bundle (2007-03-16, cwtung) – okay to add added this term and closed this item on 12-17-10, since no one has objected in over three years.

rhizome internode (2007-08-03, cmungall) – okay to add added and closed item on 12-15-10

peripheral vein or tertiary vein (2008-02-07, anon) – reject and close rejected this term and closed item on 12-15-10

adaxial vs. abaxial structures (2008-02-18, rdidonat) – suggest adding the terms this item was fixed on 12-15-10.

shoot vascular system (2008-11-14, donghui) – suggest adding added new term shoot system vascular system, and closed item.

ovary septum vs. carpel septum (2009-04-27, donghui) – add as synonym of carpel septum, maybe open new tracker item for carpel septum develops_from carpel wall

stylar ridge/gynoecium ridge (2010-02-26, rwalls) – part of meristem – There are additional notes on these items on the agenda for POC_Conf._Call_10-26-10

raphe and seed raphe (2010-03-17, rwalls) - see proposed definitions on tracker. There are additional notes on these items on the agenda for POC_Conf._Call_10-20-10 this item was fixed on 10-20-10.

antiraphe (2010-03-17, rwalls) - see proposed definition on tracker. This is only a minor change. this item was fixed on 10-20-10.

involucre (2010-05-10, cooperl) – waiting for approval, see proposed definition on tracker

tuber is_a what? (2010-06-17, rwalls) – We need to get rid of the use of the word swollen in our definitions, because swollen is defined as a temporary enlargement (PATO). Then we can close this item.

laticifer cell (2010-07-12, rwalls) – suggest leaving the obsolete term [laticiferous cell (PO:0004005)] as obsolete and accepting this new term


The following items cannot be resolved until we deal with their parent terms, thus suggest that we prioritize re-organization of shoot system and classification of trichomes:

create chickpea related terms (2009-05-19, cwtung) – These are actually terms for types of branches or shoot systems; first deal with re-organizing shoot system

trichome parentage (2009-12-17, cmungall) – need to come back to this when we figure out how to deal with trichomes
