submitted by Austin Mast
 
  
Several terms have already been dealt with (Taproot, Stem Hair, Prickles, Anther pore and anther slit)
+
=Issues arising from last week's meeting:=
  
[https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3165981&group_id=76834&atid=835555 fascicle] The term fascicle can refer to different structures in different taxa. Suggest we use the term '''floral fascicle''' or '''flower fascicle''' in this case, to distinguish it from a "leaf fascicle," which we may want to add for describing gymnosperms.
+
Special technical meeting?
  
From Tucker, 2003, Flora:
+
''The conference call will take place on 3-17-11, at 4PM PDT.''
(in the Papilionoideae) "Pseudoracemes (Fig. 5B) differ from racemes in
 
that two to several flowers are initiated in each bract axil rather than
 
just one as in a raceme. '''The cluster of flowers at each node is called a fascicle.''' The order of initiation among flowers at a node (Fig. 5B, Psoralea macrostachys DC) shows
 
'''the fascicle to be a short shoot topped by a second order inflorescence apical meristem'''. This meristem initiates
 
flowers in a bilaterally symmetrical order: a single abaxial flower, then
 
two lateral flowers, another median abaxial, then two more laterals. The
 
number of flowers per fascicle depends on the duration of the axillary
 
inflorescence apex of the short shoot, which ceases activity after
 
initiating the few flowers in the fascicle. No flowers are initiated
 
adaxially (toward the first order axis) on the short shoot (Tucker, 1987b;
 
Tucker and Stirton, 1991). The short shoot in a pseudoraceme can be
 
distinguished from a cyme in that every flower is bract subtended in a
 
pseudoraceme."
 
  
Suggested def: A second order inflorescence in which the second order inflorescence branch bears two or more flowers but is not elongatedComment: A fascilce appears to be a cluster of flowers in an axil of a single bract of the main inflorescence. Common in some sections of the Fabaceae.
+
''RW will look try to see if any other ontologies are using the has_part relation, and how they deal with itWill post possible alternative solutions on the [[POC Technical Issues Page]].''
  
 +
=Physcomitrella terms=
  
[https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3165983&group_id=76834&atid=835555 bristle] (used in key as "Stipules spinose or bristles"; might be thought of as a quality, rather than a structure)
+
''Discussion of new terms was postponed until next week, due to low attendance.''
  
We added the term stipule spine. Could also add the term '''stipule bristles''': A stipule that has a brush-like appearance.
+
==[https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3109542&group_id=76834&atid=835555 Gametangium, antheridium, archegonium and related terms]==
  
Alternative is to suggest bristled to PATO
+
==apical cell==
  
 +
==Collective plant structures:==
  
[https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3165984&group_id=76834&atid=835555 phyllode] Suggested def: A leaf in which there is no normal lamina development, but instead the petiole or petiole plus rachis is laminar.
+
==Plant organs:==
  
 +
==Additional moss terms:==
  
[https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3165994&group_id=76834&atid=835555 banner, wing and keel]
+
==Cardinal organ parts==
  
'''Banner''' (as in a legume flower) - suggest using name 'banner petal'
+
''See [[POC_Conf._Call_3-22-11]] for details.''
 
 
Suggested def: A petal that is the top-most petal of a corolla in some flowers of the Fabaceae. Comment: The banner is usually larger than the adjacent wing petals.
 
 
 
 
 
'''Wing''' (as in a legume flower) - suggest using name 'wing petal'
 
 
 
Suggested def: One of two petals that is adjacent to the banner petal in some flowers of the Fabaceae. Comment: The wing petals are usually much smaller than the banner petal and the corolla keel.
 
 
 
 
 
'''Keel''' (as in a legume flower): The keel consists of two fused petals, and is analogous to the fused collective tepal structure we made for Musa. Maybe name 'corolla keel'
 
 
 
Suggest three new terms:
 
 
 
fused petal: A petal that is fused to another petal. Comment: May be fused to two petals (one on either side). This is a phenotype that is a cross-product of PO:0009032 (petal) and PATO:0000642 (fused with).
 
 
 
fused corolla: A corolla in which the petals are fused. Comment: This is a phenotype that is a cross-product of PO:0025023 (collective phyllome structure) and PATO:0000642 (fused with). A corolla may consist of a combination of fused and free petals, in which case fused corolla only refers to those petals that are fused.
 
 
 
corolla keel: A fused corolla that consists of the two lowest petals in some flowers of the Fabaceae. Comment: The two petals of the keel may be fused at the apex but free at the base. The remaining three petals (banner and two wings) are free. The keel is boat shaped.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
[https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3166008&group_id=76834&atid=835555 locule] The term locule can be used to refer to the cavity in an carpel or in an anther.  In the PGDSO, we have the term PO:0001026 locules established, which is an anther development stage. For clarity, we may want to add two terms: locule, anther locule and carpel locule.
 
 
 
anther locule: A plant anatomical space that is a cavity in an anther formed by a single pollen sac.
 
 
 
carpel locule: A plant anatomical space that is a cavity in a carpel that contains at least one ovule. Comment: A syncarpous gynoecium may have multiple locules, and the locules of multiple carpels may be fused.
 
 
 
May want to add general parent terms locule: A plant anatomical space that is a cavity within a sporophyll. Synonym: loculus
 
 
 
 
 
==TraitNet requests==
 
 
 
[https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3080906&group_id=76834&atid=835555 corm]
 
 
 
proposed def: A short, enlarged storage stem in which the internodes do not elongate. Comment: usually underground.
 
 
 
child of stem (PO:0009047).
 
 
 
 
 
[https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3080911&group_id=76834&atid=835555 podarium]
 
 
 
Their comment: is synonym to Tubercle
 
 
 
podarium (from Beentje 2010): (in cacti or other succulents) a modified leaf base functioning as the photosynthesising organ.
 
 
 
tubercle (from Beentje 2010): (in ball- or barrel- shaped cacti), cone-shaped protuberances that are elnarge modified leaf bases fused with adjacent stem tissue (tubercle has two other definitions as well).
 
 
 
proposed def:
 
 
 
 
 
[https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3080913&group_id=76834&atid=835555 pneumatophore]
 
 
 
definition from Beentje (2010): erect (breathing) root protruding above the soil, encountered especially in mangroves
 
 
 
proposed def: A root that is erect and protrudes above the soil, found in trees that live in flooded habitats such as mangroves. Comment: Pneumatophores may provide oxygen to below ground roots growing in flooded soils.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
[https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3080916&group_id=76834&atid=835555 diaspore]
 
 
 
definition from Beentje (2010): reproductive portion of a plant, such as a seed, fruit or fragment of fruit, that is dispersed and may give rise to a new plant.
 
 
 
We could add this term as a kind of upper level bin term (similar to trichome)
 
 
 
 
 
[https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3080919&group_id=76834&atid=835555 cone]
 
 
 
Should probably be a synonym of strobilus (PO:0025083). Narrow or exact?
 
 
 
 
 
[https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3080922&group_id=76834&atid=835555 sorus]
 
 
 
from Crum (2001): a cluster of fern sporangia
 
from Beentje (2010): (of pteridophytes) structure bearing or containing groups of sporangia.
 
 
 
Proposed definition: A cardinal organ part composed of a cluster of two or more adjacent sporagia on the surface of a leaf. Comment: May be enclosed by an indusium.
 
 
 
Part_of vascular leaf, has_part sporangium
 
 
 
 
 
[https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3080925&group_id=76834&atid=835555 tendril]
 
 
 
Defintion from Beentje (2010): a slender, coiling structure derived from a branch, leaf or inflorescence and used for climbing.
 
 
 
tendrils can derived from multiple types of structures. Suggest we make separate terms:
 
 
 
branch tendril (child of branch): A branch that is slender and coiling. Comment: Aids plant in climbing.
 
 
 
leaf tendril (child of leaf): A leaf that is slender and coiling and lacks a lamina. Comment: Aids plant in climbing.
 
 
 
leaflet tendril (child of leaflet): A leaflet that is slender and coiling. Comment: Aids plant in climbing.
 
 
 
leaf apex tendril (child of leaf apex): A leaf apex that is slender and coiling. Comment: Aids plant in climbing.
 
 
 
Can add other types of tendrils if they come up or users need them.

===[http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2812238&group_id=76834&atid=835555 tuber growth and development stages]===
 
 
 
This item has been open on SF since 6/2009
 
 
 
I have a bunch of potato genes which are expressed in different tuber developmental stages (e.g. the potato pmt gene is expressed in small sprouts only (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16088399).
 
 
 
Suggested stages:
 
 
 
-sprout development (does this correspond to tube axillary bud development? Should come after tuber maturation)
 
 
 
-tuber initiation
 
 
 
-tuber growth
 
 
 
-tuber maturation
 
 
 
How we work these in will depend on restructuring of PGDSO
