− |
| |
− | 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.

− | 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

POC meeting, Webex Conference Call; Date: Tuesday Mar 1st, 2011 10am (PST)
In attendance:
POC members:
Absent:
Collaborators:
Acceptance of the minutes from the POC_Conf._Call_2-22-11?
Report from the Phenotype Ontology RCN Summit
The Phenotype Ontology RCN
February 25-27, 2010 at the National Evolutionary Synthesis Center in Durham, NC,
Laurel and Pankaj will be attending.
From RW:
-What is official PO strategy for dealing with phenotypes?
-Should it differ between description of mutant phenotypes and descriptions needed for systematic studies?
-Should PO develop a list of terms to be submitted to PATO (rather than our current piecemeal suggestions)?
-Possible case study: description of inflorescence types.
Upcoming meetings 2011:
* ICBO 2011 Second International Conference on Biomedical Ontology
July 26-30, 2011
Buffalo, New York
ICBO
CALL FOR WORKSHOP AND TUTORIAL PROPOSALS:
Melissa, Alan and Chris are organizing an anatomy ontology workshop.
- LC will attend and represent the PO. Invite other plant people?
-BS suggested we might want to submit a short paper which could be published in longer form later- see above
* International Botanical Congress (IBC2011)
July 23rd-30th 2011, Melbourne, Australia
Registration is open Important dates
Symposium proposal was accepted, 'Bio-Ontologies for the Plant Sciences' under the Genetics, Genomics and Bioinformatics theme.
Dennis, Alejandra, Pankaj and Ramona are planning to attend.
Next meeting scheduled for Tues, Mar. 8th, 2011 at 10am PST
