Background: We received a list of of ABRC stocks with associated phenotypes, by email, from JB (ABRC Phenotypes for Pankaj (JB 8-24-11).xlsx). From JB: "They are all single mutants; 15 have a term "leaf" within their phenotype; 13 have a term "flower"; 18 have "root"; 12 "seed" and 9 "seedling".
Created Dropbox folder: ABRC Phenotype annotations
Goal: a collaboration with ABRC on annotating their phenotype descriptors with PO, PATO and TO.
11-25-09: PJ asked CM about using Obol:
From CM in reference to the examples set: "Obol works best on controlled syntaxes; the first set would be easy and the second harder, but it could be extended."
