Problem: Stem has no is_a parent- should be a collective plant structure?

−
Stem def'n: The axial system of plants that bears leaves and buds. [source: APWeb:Glossary]

−
Synonyms: cane, culm,  stalk, trunk
 
−
 
−
OR if we make it a child of plant organ, then penduncle, pedicel and gynophore can be stalks.

'''5. stalk''' (See SF Tracker: [https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2972224&group_id=76834&atid=835555/ stalk])
 
−
 
−
This was added as a new term at the Ithaca meeting on 12/2009, to cover a number of the terms lacking is_a parents.
 
−
 
−
def'n: An 
elongated, sub-cylindrical to cylindrical structure that supports another 
organ or regional part of an organ.
 
−
 
−
Proposed def'n: A cardinal organ part that is elongated and
 sub-cylindrical to cylindrical and supports an 
organ or another cardinal organ part.
 
−
 
−
-made a cardinal organ part (as per its definition) rather than an organ.

'''Proposed children of stalk: (Test: do all of these fit the definition?)'''

−
*filament: The stalk of a stamen.(stamen:organ)
 
−
 
−
*petiole: The stalk of a leaf. (leaf:organ)
 
−
 
−
*petiolule: The stalk of a leaflet (leaflet:cardinal organ part)
 
−
 
−
*funicle: The stalk which attaches the ovule to the
 placenta.(ovule: cardinal organ part)
 
−
 
−
*gynophore: The stalk at the base of the ovary.

(ovary: cardinal organ part)
 
−
 
−
*leaf rachis: That part of the main axis of a pinnate or more highly compound leaf, that bears leaflets or divisions of the axis.(leaf:organ)  (See SF Tracker: [https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2972235&group_id=76834&atid=835555/ leaf rachis])
 
−
 
−
*peduncle: The stalk of an inflorescence; that part of
 the inflorescence below the first flower or inflorescence branch and above 
the last foliage leaf/pair of foliage leaves. (See SF Tracker: [https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2972231&group_id=76834&atid=835555/ peduncle])

propose revised def'n: The stalk of an inflorescence or an individual flower (R, E, E 4th edition).

*pedicel: Basal part of the ultimate branch of the inflorescence. [source: APWeb:Glossary]

(See SF Tracker: [https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2975275&group_id=76834&atid=835555/ pedicel])

−
propose revised def'n: The stalk of an individual flower in an inflorescence that contains more than one flower (LC revised from R,E,E4th edition).
 
−
 
−
'''Note: We also have the term 'stem''''.  We need to decide if 'peduncle' and 'pedicel' fit better as stalk or stem.

'''4. More 'new is_a children of cardinal organ part''''  (See SF Tracker: [https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2971884&group_id=76834&atid=835555/ new is_a children of cardinal organ part])
 
−
 
−
Several weeks ago, we created new children of cardinal organ part, from '''terms that had no is_a parent'''. We can deal with definitions and relationships of each term later, but for now we simply need to approve moving them to cardinal organ part.
 
−
 
−
Some of them can be dealt with later, but the terms listed here are a higher priority and/or can be dealt with very quickly. Many of the definitions need to be worked on at a future meeting. See Source Forge items for additional comments.
 
−
 
−
'''*receptacle:''' The region at end of pedicel or axis to which parts of flower are attached. [source: APWeb:Glossary, POC:curators].

(See SF Tracker: [https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2975273&group_id=76834&atid=835555/ receptacle])
 
−
 
−
propose revised def'n: The region at the top of either the peduncle or pedicel where the floral appendages (for example, sepals, petals, stamens, and pistils) are attached.(Brooklyn Botanic Garden http://www.bbg.org/gar2/topics/botany/parts_flowers.html)
 
−
 
−
Comments: If both pedicel and peduncle is_a stalk, and stalk is_a 'cardinal organ part', then both pedicel and peduncle must be part of some
 
−
organ for this to work.
 
−
 
−
'''*hypanthium'''- A cup- or tube-like structure bearing perianth and stamens on its rim, so these arise above the base, and often above the top, of the ovary of a flower.

made part_of receptacle instead of part_of flower

'''*pulvinus:'''-A more or less abrupt swelling, especially at the apex or base of a petiole or leaf sheath, often glandular and/or being the place where a plant responds to touch, gravity or light, in panicoid grasses a swollen region

in the stem above the intercalary meristem - such a definition would also include stems of Chloranthaceae, Acanthaceae, Caryophyllaceae, Amaranthaceae, etc., cf. articulation. [source: APWeb:Glossary]

POC meeting, Webex Conference Call; Date: June 1st, 2010 10am (PDT)

In attendance: POC members:

Acceptance of the minutes from the last meeting? All in favor?


Agenda:

1. Linking images to PO

  • We can put in hyperlinks to individual images posted on plantsystematics.org
  • More difficult to insert hyperlinks to collections of images, such as search results for keyword "pedicel," but it is possible
  • If each image has a unique ID, Amigo can automatically generate hyperlinks to the database, so we would only have to input the ID. For example, we would enter PS:00123 under exteral dbxrefs, where PS would stand for PlantSystematics.org, and 00123 would be the unique ID number for an image, and in the Amigo browser, there would be a link to the image in Plantsystematic.org.
  • Can we request that arrows be added to some of the existing images to highlight the feature we want to illustrate?
