In attendance: POC member: Laurel Cooper (OSU),Rosemary Shrestha- Generation Challenge Program, CIMMYT, Mexico,


Agenda:

1.Introduction and overview of the Crop Ontology- Rosemary showed an introduction to the GCP Crop ontology website and the layout of the Crop Ontology Domains:

010-089 General Germplasm Ontology Ontology

090-099 Taxonomic Ontology

100-299 Plant Anatomy & Development Ontology

300-499 Phenotype and Trait Ontology Ontology

500-699 Structural and Functional Genomic Ontology

700-799 Location and Environmental Ontology

800-899 General Science Ontology

900-999 Other (Sub-domain or Site-Specific) Ontology


The overall goals of the Crop Ontology are to unify and connect the many databases. There are different ontologies for each of the species of interest rice, wheat, maize, banana, chickpea, sorghum. Within these ontologies, there are species-specific descriptions of plant anatomy and growth and development terms that can be browsed on the GCP - Crop Ontology Lookup Service.
