Changes for this release
See details at Summary_of_Changes_to_PO_September_2011
Major changes for this release were:
1. Includsion of Spanish synonyms. They seem to be working fine, except that we still should have the descriptor "(Spanish:)" preceding them. Look up notes from meeting...
Not clear if this is a problem with just the dev browser.
2. Eliminating_Zea/Poaceae_terms_from_PO
3. New annotation files:
- Should we wait for MaizeGDB to send all their new annotations?
- Addition of new annotations for grape (LC working on) and [strawberry]
4. Other changes
- Japanese synonyms?
Target dates:
We discussed having a release in September, 2011
- Finish all edits: 9/16/2011?
- Update annotation files and test on beta browser:
- Other tasks?
- Final release: End of September
Additional edits to finish before release
PGDSO edits requested by Mary for MaizeGDB
coleoptile emergence and fruit formation
Legume terms requested by Austin Mast
banner, wing and keel
reference: Lawrence, Taxonomy of Vascular Plants (1955)
Banner (as in a legume flower) - suggest using name banner petal
Proposed def: A petal that is the top-most petal of a papilionaceous corolla.
Comment: Usually larger than the adjacent wing petals. Found in the flowers of some Fabaceae.
Synonyms vexillum (exact), standard (broad)
Wing (as in a legume flower) - suggest using name wing petal
Proposed def: One of two lateral petals that is adjacent to the banner petal of a papilionaceous corolla .
Comment: The wing petals are usually much smaller than the banner petal and the corolla keel. Found in the flowers of some Fabaceae.
Keel (as in a legume flower) - suggest using name corolla keel and adding term for keel petal.
Two new terms:
corolla keel: A boat-shaped collective phyllome structure that consists of the two lowest petals of a papilionaceous corolla.
Comment: The two petals of the keel are often fused at the apex and free at the base. The keel projects toward the front of the flower. Found in the flowers of some Fabaceae.
is_a collective phyllome structure, part_of corolla
keel petal: A petal that is one of the two lowest petals of a papilionaceous corolla.
Comment: The keel petals are usually larger than the adjacent wing petals. They are often partially fused to each other. Each petal is shaped like half a boat and projects toward the front of the flower.
Calyptra perianth types
Images in the PO via Plantsystematics.org (11:00 AM - 12:30 PM)
- from MAG (by email): "I am taking with me not only lots of "annotated" photos for Pankaj but also I will demonstrate everything we did with Plantsystematics.org and the PO photos. We are using the list I translated (the English version of course) and added them as keywords in Plantsystematics.org as a search engine as well."
