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
-need unique IDs for FNA terms, in order to deal with duplicates (multiple concepts with same name)
Open questions
- 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
