Added new subset for Spanish language synonyms. Scope is exact synonyms.

Changes in 'in vitro plant structure' (PO:0000004), and its children

• part_of relationships to whole plant:

Removed the part_of relationships to whole plant from: All the children of plant structure that are defined as " A plant structure...." and also plant cell.
