Helen Ougham et al. (Aberystwyth University): Enriching online content of a scientific journal using the Plant Ontology
 +
 
 +
 
 +
The increasing availability of scientific journals in online format offers new opportunities to enrich the content of articles. Content enrichment can include the provision of additional terms for indexing, definitions of specialised terms, links to relevant content in bioinformatics and other databases, suggestions for further reading and much more. We are developing a process for enriching the content of papers published in New Phytologist, one of the world's leading plant science journals (impact factor 6.736). A key component of this process is the Plant Ontology (PO; http://www.plantontology.org/), a botanical ontology that describes plant anatomy and stages in plant development. The PO, which has been developed by international experts in these domains with considerable and ongoing input from the research community, provides a structured controlled vocabulary of defined terms. We describe how we are using the PO to increase the amount of knowledge readers of New Phytologist papers can access, and how this approach can facilitate botanical research and education.

 +
 
 +
- LC of the Plant Ontology met with other members of the Plant Working Group to continue the development of the phenotype annotation files using the PO, GO, ChEBI, PATO and EO ontologies consistently and correctly to describe phenotypes from ''Medicago'', rice, maize, Arabidopsis, tomato and soybean.
 +
 
 +
- The goal is the analysis of the full phenotype annotation set which should include ~6400 phenotype annotation statements made to 2750 mutant genes across the 6 plant species.
 +
 
 +
- Analysis possibilities include investigating the extent to which a mutant phenotype can be predicted from protein similarity or vice versa, and whether this can be used as a basis for selecting candidate genes underlying QTL or genetic loci.

Subjects: The course involved a mix of lectures and hands-on exercises to learn about plant DNA and bioinformatics:
 +
* Basics of the genome, DNA, RNA, protein, genetic mutations, genetic markers (SNPs and SSRs), molecular structures, and the genetics and scoring of agronomic traits.
 +
 
 +
* The students worked with DNA modeling kits to learn about its structure, components, assembly of the molecule and how mutations occur in the DNA chain.
 +
 
 +
Hands-on Lab Activity:
 +
*Students isolated DNA from two varieties of Einkorn wheat (''Triticum monococcum''), a diploid wheat which is a close relative of the modern bread wheat and assayed a wheat genetic marker, (recently-discovered in the Jaiswal laboratory) using PCR amplification followed by gel electrophoresis to illustrate differences between the varieties and learned about the applications of genetic markers in genetic and forensic studies including plant breeding and variety development.
 +
 
 +
Hands-on Computer Activity:
 +
* Using the rice chloroplast genome sequence available from the EMBL data archive as a starting point, students explored bioinformatics software, tools, and databases (including Artemis, Pfam, Cn3D, etc.) scientists use to import and annotate genome sequences to find genes, gene products (proteins), assign function to proteins, compare to other well-known homologous proteins, and model protein 3D structures.
 +
 
 +
The course ended with a lecture and hands-on exercise focusing on genetics, plant breeding and scoring differences in important agronomic traits (characters/phenotypes) such as the spike structures (seed-bearing parts/fruits) of plants from the Oregon Wolfe Barley population

Helen Ougham et al. (Aberystwyth University): Enriching online content of a scientific journal using the Plant Ontology


The increasing availability of scientific journals in online format offers new opportunities to enrich the content of articles. Content enrichment can include the provision of additional terms for indexing, definitions of specialised terms, links to relevant content in bioinformatics and other databases, suggestions for further reading and much more. We are developing a process for enriching the content of papers published in New Phytologist, one of the world's leading plant science journals (impact factor 6.736). A key component of this process is the Plant Ontology (PO; http://www.plantontology.org/), a botanical ontology that describes plant anatomy and stages in plant development. The PO, which has been developed by international experts in these domains with considerable and ongoing input from the research community, provides a structured controlled vocabulary of defined terms. We describe how we are using the PO to increase the amount of knowledge readers of New Phytologist papers can access, and how this approach can facilitate botanical research and education.

Keywords: content enrichment, New Phytologist, plant ontology, text mining

May 16-17 2014, Oxford, UK

ASPB Plant Biology 2014, Portland, OR, July 12-16th, 2014

The Plant Ontology will be represented at the ASPB Plant Biology 2014 meeting in Portland, Oregon July 12th-16th.

Representatives of the PO, along with several other plant genome databases, will be present at the Plant Genome Resources Outreach Booth: (# 415) throughout the meeting to answer questions and interact with users. You can find a schedule at the booth in Exhibit Hall A-B.

Visit our poster (P41006-C) to learn more about recent developments in Reference Ontologies for Plants and Tools for Integrative Plant Genomics.

Also, plan to attend the Special Minisymposium: Bioinformatic Resources for Plant Biology Research, Sunday July 13th, from 7:45 PM to 10:00 PM in room A106. This workshop will provide an overview of a variety of tools and resources of interest to plant biology researchers.

Phenotype RCN Plant Working Group Meeting Ames, Iowa, May 1-2, 2013

- LC of the Plant Ontology met with other members of the Plant Working Group to continue the development of the phenotype annotation files using the PO, GO, ChEBI, PATO and EO ontologies consistently and correctly to describe phenotypes from Medicago, rice, maize, Arabidopsis, tomato and soybean.

- The goal is the analysis of the full phenotype annotation set which should include ~6400 phenotype annotation statements made to 2750 mutant genes across the 6 plant species.

- Analysis possibilities include investigating the extent to which a mutant phenotype can be predicted from protein similarity or vice versa, and whether this can be used as a basis for selecting candidate genes underlying QTL or genetic loci.


PRO-PO-GO_Meeting Buffalo NY, May 15-16, 2013

A workshop to promote the coordination of the Gene, Protein, and Plant Ontologies and of other reference ontologies used in plant biology.

Co-organized by: The Plant Ontology, The Protein Ontology, National Center for Biomedical Ontology, and the National Center for Ontological Research.

Oral Presentations by members of the PO group:

  • Laurel Cooper: The Plant Ontology: A Resource for Plant Genomics
  • Pankaj Jaiswal: Outline of the cROP Framework
  • Pankaj Jaiswal: The Trait Ontology
  • Laurel Cooper: Plant Phenotype Pilot Project

STEM Class, July 15-19, 2013 Oregon State University

The STEM Academy and Jaiswal laboratory at Oregon State University co-organized a week long (July 15-19, 2013) DNA Biology and Bioinformatics Summer Camp for high school students. The course was heavily subscribed, with 12 students (4 boys and 8 girls).

Subjects: The course involved a mix of lectures and hands-on exercises to learn about plant DNA and bioinformatics:

  • Basics of the genome, DNA, RNA, protein, genetic mutations, genetic markers (SNPs and SSRs), molecular structures, and the genetics and scoring of agronomic traits.
  • The students worked with DNA modeling kits to learn about its structure, components, assembly of the molecule and how mutations occur in the DNA chain.

Hands-on Lab Activity:

  • Students isolated DNA from two varieties of Einkorn wheat (Triticum monococcum), a diploid wheat which is a close relative of the modern bread wheat and assayed a wheat genetic marker, (recently-discovered in the Jaiswal laboratory) using PCR amplification followed by gel electrophoresis to illustrate differences between the varieties and learned about the applications of genetic markers in genetic and forensic studies including plant breeding and variety development.

Hands-on Computer Activity:

  • Using the rice chloroplast genome sequence available from the EMBL data archive as a starting point, students explored bioinformatics software, tools, and databases (including Artemis, Pfam, Cn3D, etc.) scientists use to import and annotate genome sequences to find genes, gene products (proteins), assign function to proteins, compare to other well-known homologous proteins, and model protein 3D structures.

The course ended with a lecture and hands-on exercise focusing on genetics, plant breeding and scoring differences in important agronomic traits (characters/phenotypes) such as the spike structures (seed-bearing parts/fruits) of plants from the Oregon Wolfe Barley population
