spatial terms

[Bruskiewich, Richard (IRRI)]

Hi Pankaj,

I'd be willing at our end to explore the PATO framework a bit further, both
in software/database terms and in terms of curation, to better cataloging
rice mutant phenotypes (starting with IRRI's IR64 mutants) :-)) 

Cheers
Richard

Hi Richard,

We have just started this exploration exercise and would like to wait on
committing something that requires more of our efforts.
