Cosmoss- Physcomitrella
Initial meeting
- date: Sept 2010
- We have been contacted by Stefan Rensing, University of Freiburg, Germany
re: setting up an ontology for bryophytes with a focus on the model moss Physcomitrella patens.
Ramona and Dennis responded to him with an explanation of why we chose the current structure. He responded:
'We will aim to setup bryophyte terms with regard to the new structure and (if possible) suggest terms that are broad enough to cover all land plants in the process.'
'FYI, the current, but now obsolete, PO-MO term mapping is at MossOntology wiki'
This site has a list of moss tissue and cell types, as well as life cycle/developmental stages that we could use a a guide for adding new terms.
