7. Re-organization of existing terms Tabled for next week's discussion.
- floral bract and inflorescence bract
These two terms were children of both plant organ and bract (which is_a organ). Deleted is_a relationships to plant organ and kept under bract.
- fruit
Is a fruit an organ?
Current def'n: The seed-bearing structure in angiosperms, formed from the ovary after flowering.
MAG: fruit fits our definition of a plant organ
For future discussions:
New is_a children of cardinal organ part
Several weeks ago, we created new children of cardinal organ part, from terms that had no is_a parent. We can deal with definitions and relationships of each term later, but for now we simply need to approve moving them to cardinal organ part
Some of them can be dealt with later, but the terms listed here are a higher priority and/or can be dealt with very quickly. Many of the definitions need to be worked on at a future meeting. See Source Forge item for additional comments.
- pulvinus: (currently is_a (an) organ)
The definition should also be reworded.
Current definition: A more or less abrupt swelling, especially at the apex or base of a petiole or leaf sheath, often glandular and/or being the place where a plant responds to touch, gravity or light, in panicoid grasses a swollen region in the stem above the intercalary meristem - such a definition would also include stems of Chloranthaceae, Acanthaceae, Caryophyllaceae, Amaranthaceae, etc., cf. articulation. [source: APWeb:Glossary]
Proposed def'n.: (Lol and Ramona will work on before meeting)
- receptacle: Part_of pedicel (which is currently a stalk, see below)
- stalk (moved from is_a organ)- A cardinal organ part that is elongated and sub-cylindrical to cylindrical and supports another cardinal organ part.
- leaf rachis (is_a stalk)-
These two terms are pretty straight forward. Stalk was made a cardinal organ part (as per its definition) rather than an organ. Leaf rachis was made a child of stalk (it had not is_a parent).
- peduncle: Is currently child of stalk, but perhaps it should be a child of stem?
- pedicel: Is currently child of stalk, but does not fit the definition. Should be a stem?
- hypanthium (made part_of receptacle instead of part_of flower)
comment: LC: I think it is better to leave hypanthium as part_of flower.
