female parts:

PO:0020136 Zea ear (56)

-is_a inflorescence

-central spike of ear, ear meristem, ear peduncle, ear spikelet and infloreacence bract of ear are part

Should ear meristem be part_of ear, or should it be ear develops_from ear meristem?

PO:0006320 ear spikelet (0)

-part_of ear spikelet

-androecium of ear floret, gynoecium of ear floret, lemma of ear floret, lodicule of ear floret, and 5 other parts are part_of

suggest merge Poaceae floret into floret, so ear floret will be a direct child of floret.

suggest merge with Poaceae megasporocyte, then megasporocyte. merge Zea ovule into ovule. Zea megaspore will merge with megaspore.

PO:0006494 Zea megaspore (0)

-is_a Poaceae megaspore

-develops_from Zea megasporocyte

-no children

suggest merge with Poaceae megaspore, then megaspore. Zea megaspore will merge with megaspore.

PO:0009024 : gynoecium ridge of lower floret of pedicellate spikelet of ear (0)

PO:0009076 : gynoecium ridge of lower floret of sessile spikelet of ear (0)

PO:0009079 : gynoecium ridge of upper floret of pedicellate spikelet of ear (0)

PO:0009092 : gynoecium ridge of upper floret of sessile spikelet of ear (0)

suggest that each of the four children be merged into Zea gynoecium ridge, then Zea gynoecium ridge be merged into Poaceae gynoecium ridge then into gynoecium ridge.

Former zea and Poaceae terms that are part_of a floret

Once the specific Zea terms are merged with their parents, the resulting term will no longer have a part_of relation to ear floret or tassel floret (or their children). For example, Zea carpel is part_of gynoecium of ear floret, but once Zea carpel is merged with carpel and gynoecium of ear floret is merged with gynoecium, gynoecium will not be part of ear floret.

We could add a comment to the parts of flower: "If you are annotating to this structure for Zea mays, please also add an annotation to the corresponding floret type."

Of course, this is a lot of parts, so maybe we just want to educate the annotators instead.

The following structures should have the above comment:

(There may be other parts of flowers. These were all the terms with Poaceae children.)
