POC meeting, Webex Conference Call; Date: Tuesday Feb 19th, 2013 10am PST/1pm EST

Absent: Pankaj Jaiswal (OSU)
Defining the plant structure development stages
On last week's conf call Barry said we should not be defining the plant structure development stages as a stage that has as a primary participant a plant structure and also adding the has_participant (or participates_in) relation as well. That makes sense as it does seem to be somewhat circular,and if the definitions are ever formalized, then it would be redundant. The problem is that we already have a whole bunch of them defined this way, besides the new ones added for the shoot system.
Examples already in the Plant Ontology:
- collective plant organ structure development stage (PO:0025338)
- whole plant development stage (PO:0007033)
- fruit development stage (PO:0001002) (currently no has_participant relation to fruit)
- plant organ development stage (PO:0025339)
- plant tissue development stage (PO:0025423)
- seed development stage (PO:0001170)
- trichome development stage (PO:0025368)
- gametophyte development stage (PO:0028003)
- sporophyte development stage (PO:0028002)
For the terms I have recently added, I think the best solution is to change the definitions. These include most children of the shoot system development stage (new PO:0025527). I think I will to have to go back and revise the others at some point so that they are consistent.
shoot system development stage
- Current def'n: shoot system development stage (new PO:0025527): A plant structure development stage (PO:0009012) that has as primary participant a shoot system (PO:0009006).
Current relation: shoot system (PO:0009006) participates_in shoot system development stage
Revised relation: shoot system (PO:0009006): shoot system development stage has_participant shoot system
This should be shoot system development stage has_participant shoot system since the shoot system can exist outside of the shoot system development stage
What about the development of vegetative shoots?? Also we decided that the shoot system development stage begins with the development of the plant organs and ends when the plant undergoes senescence and or death.
Proposed Revised def'n:
- shoot system development stage (new PO:0025527): A plant structure development stage (PO:0009012) that begins with the plant organ development stage (PO:0025339) and ends with either gametophyte senescent stage (PO:0025343) or sporophyte senescent stage (sporophyte senescent stage) or death.
Revised relation: shoot system (PO:0009006): shoot system development stage has_participant shoot system.
Notes:
Need to revise the definition of the shoot system to include all meristems in the shoot system, not just the the shoot apical meristems (axial and lateral as well).
current def'n:
- shoot system (PO:0009006): A collective plant organ structure (PO:0025007) that produces shoot apical meristems (PO:0020148) and the plant structures that arise from them.

Upcoming meetings and Presentations 2013:
Phenotype Ontology RCN Annual Summit Meeting, Feb. 25th - 27th, 2013, Durham, NC
The workshop and meeting will be held at the National Evolutionary Synthesis Center in Durham, NC, from Monday morning, February 25 through Wednesday noon, February 27th (you would arrive Sunday evening).
Overall goals: To introduce and establish communication and collaboration among scientists from different research backgrounds. The two primary themes: The use of text mining phenotypes and representing behavior in ontologies.
For more information: please contact Paula Mabee (pmabee@usd.edu)
Biocuration 2013 conference, Cambridge, 7-10th April 2013
submission deadline for abstracts for posters is Jan 31st.
website and registration are now open: Biocuration 2013
PRO-PO-GO meeting, May 15-16th 2013
Please see this page for more information: PRO-PO-GO_Meeting
Location: Buffalo, NY
Dates: May 15-16th, 2013.
Goals:
- To educate members of the PRO, PO and GO communities concerning developments in each of the three ontologies, with a view to enhanced coordination
- To identify potentially fruitful applications which such enhanced coordination might bring
- To enhance the Protein Ontology treatment of plant-related proteins
- To address coordination issues between the GO and PO, for example as concerns treatment of development stages
- To further those aspects of CROP which relate to PRO and GO [this is assuming that PRO is included as one of the external ontologies in CROP]
Tentative participant list:
PO Consortium members: Pankaj Jaiswal and Laurel Cooper (OSU), Dennis Stevenson (NYBG), Barry Smith (Buffalo), others?
GO Consortium members: Jane Lomax (EBI), Judith Blake (JAX), Alex Diehl (Buffalo) who else?
PRO Consortium members: Cathy Wu, Alan Ruttenberg (Buffalo)
BS would like a list of who we would like to include in the meeting and whose costs can be covered by PO
