Release announcements
New Release: April 2012
The latest release of the Plant Ontology, version #17, is available on our Ontology Browser.
This full release features the addition of ~140 new terms, for both the Plant Anatomical Entity and Plant Structure Development Stage aspects. It also includes new annotations for Gossypium hirsutum, Picea spp. and updated annotations for many other species.
This release also includes a new feature: The Plant Anatomy Glossary.
The release marks a major revision to the plant structure development stage branch of the PO, including a new root term (plant structure development stage) and many new and revised terms for the whole plant development stage branch. Other new plant structure development stage terms include seed trichome development stage and its subtypes, needed for Gossypium annotations, and secondary xylem development stage and its subtypes, needed to describe wood development.
Revisions to the plant anatomical entity branch of the PO include updated definitions for nearly all vascular and related tissue and cell types, plus 29 new terms for vascular tissues or cells. Many new subtypes of plant anatomical space, portion of plant substance, and meristem, were also added, at the request of several user groups.
