coleoptile emergence
Current def'ns: seedling shoot emergence stage (PO:0007030): Shoot or leaf breaks through soil surface.
coleoptile emergence (PO:0007045): Emergence of coleoptile above ground
radicle emergence (PO:0007015): The stage at which the radicle or root emerges from seed.
current structure (dev):
Shoot emergence (stage) is_a seedling growth (stage). Seedling growth (stage) is_a vegetative growth stage (changes were made at last release).
Imbitition (stage) is_a germination (stage). Will deal with definitions of imbibition and germination later.
current and proposed terms and definitions
All of the terms below originally described a single point in time. We need to figure out when the shoot emergence stage should end.
current: shoot emergence (PO:0007030): Shoot or leaf breaks through the soil surface.
proposed: shoot emergence from growth medium development stage (PO:0007030): A seedling growth stage that has as a participant a whole plant during the interval between emergence of a part of a shoot system from the growth medium and ???.
Comment: This terms is used only for seed plants.
proposed: shoot emergence from seed coat development stage (new number): A seedling growth stage that has as a participant a whole plant during the interval between emergence of a part of a shoot system from the seed coat and ???.
Comment: May occur simultaneously with shoot emergence form the growth medium. This terms is used only for seed plants.
current: coleoptile emergence (PO:0007045): Emergence of coleoptile above ground. [source: GR:ap, ISBN:3826331524]
proposed: coleoptile emergence from growth medium development stage (PO:0007045): A shoot emergence stage that has as a participant a whole plant during the interval between emergence of a coleoptile from the growth medium and ???
Comment: This terms is used only for seed plants.
proposed: coleoptile emergence from seed coat development stage (new number): A shoot emergence stage that has as a participant a whole plant during the interval between emergence of a coleoptile from the seed coat and ???
Comment: May occur simultaneously with coleoptile emergence form the growth medium. This terms is used only for seed plants.
current: cotyledon emergence (PO:0007049): Emergence of cotyledons above ground. [source: GR:ap, ISBN:3826331524]
proposed: cotyledon emergence from growth medium development stage (PO:0007049): A shoot emergence stage that has as a participant a whole plant during the interval between emergence of a cotyledon from the growth medium and ???
Comment: This terms is used only for seed plants. Cannot be used in plants with hypogeal germination.
proposed: cotyledon emergence from seed coat development stage (new number): A shoot emergence stage that has as a participant a whole plant during the interval between emergence of a cotyledon from the seed coat and ???
Comment: This terms is used only for seed plants. Cannot be used in plants with hypogeal germination. May occur simultaneously with cotyledon emergence form the growth medium.
current: epicotyl emergence (PO:0007054): Emergence of the epicotyl above ground. [source: GR:ap, ISBN:0306416875]
proposed: epicotyl emergence from growth medium development stage (PO:0007054): A shoot emergence stage that has as a participant a whole plant during the interval between emergence of an epicotyl from the growth medium and ???
Comment: This terms is used only for seed plants. During this phase, only the first true foliage leaf or pair of leaves is visible. Occurs in plants with hypogeal germination.
proposed: epicotyl emergence from seed coat development stage (new number): A shoot emergence stage that has as a participant a whole plant during the interval between emergence of an epicotyl from the seed coat and ???

proposed: hypocotyl emergence from growth medium development stage (PO:0007043): A shoot emergence stage has as a participant a whole plant during the interval between emergence of a hypocotyl from the growth medium and ???
Comment: This terms is used only for seed plants. Occurs in plants with epigeal germination.
proposed: hypocotyl emergence from seed coat development stage (new number): A shoot emergence stage that has as a participant a whole plant during the interval between emergence of a hypocotyl from the seed coat and ???
Comment: This terms is used only for seed plants. Occurs in plants with epigeal germination. May occur simultaneously with hypocotyl emergence form the growth medium.
Could also add terms for feeder emergence for some gymnosperms.
For all of the above terms, need to check existing synonyms and move or copy them as needed.
This was discussed at the NYBG Meeting, on Sunday_Sept_11th,_2011
At the POC meeting on Sunday_Sept_11th,_2011, we agreed to keep the existing terms that reference emergence from the soil, but rename them as stages, and add new terms for emergence from seed coat. Need to copy over list of existing synonyms to new emergence terms.
Suggestion from MS (MaizeGDB):
We all agreed that this is an issue. Also there are about 25,000 annotations on this stage, may have to keep both
Can eliminate the description of emergence from the ground or growth media and add a note that you might not observe it if the seed is underground. Additional issue is how to define this as a stage. It is actually a stage of elongation, which starts with emergence from the seed coat
Upcoming meetings and Presentations 2012:
Maize Genetics Meeting, March 15-18, 2012
The maize meetings are being held in Portland, OR this year.
For more info see: Maize Genetics Meeting 2012
LC will present a short talk abstract Friday march 16th, 5:45pm
No PO-Gramene workshop is planned

Space is limited and registration will close at 5 pm on March 10th.
Organizer; Neelima Sinha (Sinha@ucdavis.edu) The PO will not take part this year, because the timing is too short. We will look at attending next year.

SPNHC 2012
Annual meeting of the Society for the Preservation of Natural History Collections
Yale University, New Haven Connecticut June 11-16, 2012
Any interest in making a PO presentation at this meeting? Perhaps RW and/or DWS could just go for the day of the presentation, since it is local (New Haven, CT).
The theme for the meeting is "Emerging Technology and Innovation in Natural History Collections Management" (focus on the tools, innovative methods and collaborations that will move the natural history collections community forward).
From PJ: If we can show progress in the FNA work or Morphobank yes we should
Crop Ontology Workshop
We are looking at the tentative dates of either: June 11-13th or Aug 6th to 8th
The focus of the workshop will be on mostly development stages and traits for the crop plants
Botany 2012
July 7 - 11, 2012 - Columbus, Ohio
Call for Symposia, Colloquia and Workshops:
RW, DWS and MAG put together a proposal for a half day hands-on workshop. The goal will be to teach people (mostly botanists) how to access and use the PO, including how to send feedback, suggest new terms, etc.
Proposal was submitted, waiting for news.
PJ: suggest that we go there with a 'draft' version of the Plant Phenotype Ontology and show them how to use these in character matrixes.
exhibitor's booth
We should also consider hosting an outreach booth.
Not a bad deal for non-profits: $500 for A 10 x 10 Booth Space at Botany 2012, and 2 complimentary registrations for the conference. (plus all the extras!)
• 2 months of Rotating Banner Ads in the online American Journal of Botany
• A Rotating Banner Ad in one edition of the online Plant Science Bulletin
• A Rotating Banner Ad on the Botany 2012 abstract submission site
• A Rotating Banner Ad on the 2012 Conference Registration site.
PJ will check with Gramene and Doreen Ware to see if they want to co-host a booth.
- Annotation wiki: JP may also give a talk on the new annotation wiki at this meeting, as part of the genomics section.
