Go directly to the PO's Source Forge tracker (for experienced users).

Overview

The Plant Ontology uses a Source Forge tracker to keep track of all new term requests as well as requests for changes to existing terms. This tracker not only lets us be more responsive to the needs of our users, but also provides valuable documentation about when and why changes were made to the Plant Ontology.

Anyone can search or browse the PO Source Forge tracker, but in order to comment on an existing tracker item, monitor an item, or create a new item, you must be logged in.

Before using the PO Source Forge tracker you should:

  • Register (create a login)
  • Log in to your account
  • Search the tracker for existing items on the same topic.

Register with Source Forge

If you have already registered with Source Forge to use another tracker, such as the Gene Ontology term request tracker or OBOEdit bug report tracker, you can use that same log in for the PO Source Forge tracker.

Click "Register" in the upper-right corner of the Source Forge page:
