PO-FNA mapping results - summary of the initial mapping efforts, plus suggestions on how to proceed.
Hong's file of "traits extracted from FNAv19": see xls file in email
RW: this appears to be an empty file. Can you please resend?
PO follow-up tasks
- add 364 synonyms to existing terms
- fix several errors that were discovered while doing the mappings
- add 143 unique new terms, plus their synonyms
-FNA provides definitions, so this will be relatively easy -A few of these are already on our list of terms to add, some from other users (e.g. phyloclade).
- create an official mapping file
Open questions
- need unique IDs for FNA terms, in order to deal with duplicates (multiple concepts with same name)
Examples:
FNA:apex matches to bract apex leaf apex petal apex petiole distal end phyllome apex reproductive shoot apex sepal apex shoot apex tepal apex vegetative shoot apex bract apex leaf apex petal apex petiole distal end phyllome apex reproductive shoot apex sepal apex shoot apex tepal apex vegetative shoot apex
- how to handle FNA terms that map to >1 PO term?
- how to map terms that are too general for PO (101 character terms)
Phenotype/character terms form FNA
- begin work on phenotype/character terms, inlcuding the 101 from this list plus all of the FNA character terms
