terms for seed trichome development stages

Open since 07-28-2010

Request

The following terms have been requested for cotton fiber development (their structure and defintions):

seed development stages PO: 0001170

---[part_of]Seed hair development stages

---[part_of]seed hair initiation stage: The earliest histological evidence of seed hair initiation, ie, a change in the orientation of cell division in the ovule epidermises occurs at or just before anthesis. (Ruan YL, 2003, Plant Cell 15:952-964) [Source:PMID: 12671090].

---[part_of]seed hair elongation stage: A period of rapid elongation of hair initials without cell division for 16-25 days. (Lee JJ, 2007, Annals of Botany 100:1391-1401 and Ruan YL, 2003, Plant Cell 15:952-964) [Sources:PMID: 17905721, PMID: 12671090].

---[part_of] seed hair secondary wall biosynthesis stage: A phase of the massive amounts of secondary cell wall cellulose synthesis. (Lee JJ, 2007, Annals of Botany 100:1391-1401 and Ruan YL, 2003, Plant Cell 15:952-964) [Sources: PMID:17905721, PMID:12671090].

---[part_of]seed hair maturation stage: A period of seed hair maturation from 50 to 60 days post-anthesis (DPA). (Lee JJ, 2007, Annals of Botany 100:1391-1401 and Ruan YL, 2003, Plant Cell 15:952-964) [Sources: PMID:17905721, PMID:12671090].

Suggested terms and definitions:

Do we want to use stage or phase throughout PGDSO?

seed development stages (PO:0001170)

Current definition: Stages of seed development, from fertilization to the dry or quiescent state. [source: TAIR:ki]

Proposed name and definition: seed development stage: A plant structure development stage that begins with fertilization and ends with seed maturation.

Comment: Only used for seed plants. Some seeds may enter a period of dormancy after seed development is complete.

is_a plant structure development stage; part_of sporophyte phase; subset for gymnosperms and angiosperms; add relation: seed participates_in seed development stage

New terms and proposed definitions:

seed trichome development stage: A plant structure development stage that is part of a seed development stage during which one or more seed trichomes develop.

is_a plant structure development stage; part_of seed development stage; add seed trichome participates_in seed trichome development stage

synonym: seed hair development stage


seed trichome initiation stage: The earliest histological evidence of seed hair initiation, ie, a change in the orientation of cell division in the ovule epidermises occurs at or just before anthesis. (Ruan YL, 2003, Plant Cell 15:952-964) [Source:PMID: 12671090].

synonym: seed hair initiation stage


seed trichome elongation stage: A period of rapid elongation of hair initials without cell division for 16-25 days. (Lee JJ, 2007, Annals of Botany 100:1391-1401 and Ruan YL, 2003, Plant Cell 15:952-964) [Sources:PMID: 17905721, PMID: 12671090].

synonym: seed hair elongation stage


seed trichome secondary wall biosynthesis stage: A phase of the massive amounts of secondary cell wall cellulose synthesis. (Lee JJ, 2007, Annals of Botany 100:1391-1401 and Ruan YL, 2003, Plant Cell 15:952-964) [Sources: PMID:17905721, PMID:12671090].

synonym: seed hair maturation stage

tuber growth and development stages

This item has been open on SF since 6/2009

I have a bunch of potato genes which are expressed in different tuber developmental stages (e.g. the potato pmt gene is expressed in small sprouts only (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16088399).

Suggested stages:

-sprout development (does this correspond to tube axillary bud development? Should come after tuber maturation)

-tuber initiation

-tuber growth

-tuber maturation

How we work these in will depend on restructuring of PGDSO
