Outline:
Introduction of the POC project
General introduction
Goals of POC:
-develop a structured vocabulary for plant anatomical entities and plant growth and developmental stages (the PO)
-develop an infrastructure to support plant comparative genomics (PO plus associations)
-community outreach to encourage contributions of annotations for more species (Phenote, web-based annotation tool in development for future)
Changes to the PO in the past year
Expansion to include all plants:
-more general definitions of upper-level terms
-new taxon-specific terms: examples from Musa or potato
New upper-level structure for PSO
Progress toward Obo-Foundry compliance:
-complete "is_a" hierarchy
-computer-readable definitions in genus-differentia form
