New terms in PO

Great !
So when we do the associations for POC, irrespective of the phenotype, 
the real associations would be to the POC terms
-internode
-leaf

Thus a user can make a statement based on the Object_type associated,
-show me all the maize phenotypes associated with leaf
-show me all the maize phenotypes associated with internode
-show me all the arabidopsis phenotypes associated with leaf
-show me all the arabidopsis phenotypes associated with internode

Thus generating a list of species specific phenotype accessions 
listed/associated for a given POC term. In this case the object_type is 
phenotype.
Other object_types would be
genes
geneproducts
	transcripts
	proteins
alleles
stocks
etc.
