Phenotype RCN Plant Working Group Meeting Ames, Iowa, May 1-2, 2013

- LC of the Plant Ontology met with other members of the Plant Working Group to continue the development of the phenotype annotation files using the PO, GO, ChEBI, PATO and EO ontologies consistently and correctly to describe phenotypes from Medicago, rice, maize, Arabidopsis, tomato and soybean.

- The goal is the analysis of the full phenotype annotation set which should include ~6400 phenotype annotation statements made to 2750 mutant genes across the 6 plant species.

- Analysis possibilities include investigating the extent to which a mutant phenotype can be predicted from protein similarity or vice versa, and whether this can be used as a basis for selecting candidate genes underlying QTL or genetic loci.
