plant organ question (fwd) (PR#314)

[Katica Ilic]

Dear Sophie,

I apologize for delayed reply. Following your request, we added two new terms in
the PO, 'short shoot' and 'long shoot' under the 'shoot' node. Please note that
'bud spur is synonym of 'short shoot'.

These new terms appear in the following lineage:

PO:0009006 shoot
   (i) PO:0004545 shoot borne shoot
         (i) PO:0006343 axillary shoot
                 (i) PO:0004702 long shoot
                 (i) PO:0004701 short shoot


short shoot  (PO:0004701)
Def: Shoot in which the internodes elongate little or at all, bearing
reproductive structures and/or leaves.
Synonyms: brachyblast, bud spur

long shoot  (PO:0004702)
Def: Shoot in which all or most of the internodes elongate.

As for your request for term 'vegetative bud', we don't have such term in the
PO, and such term could be either plant structure term or a growth stage term.
The ontology group will discuss it on the next meeting and I will get beck to
you moth more details.

Please note that POC monthly ontology release is coming up next week, and you
could see these new terms in the AmiGO browser after this release. 

I hope this helps. Please feel free to contact me with any additional questions
you may have.
 
Sincerely, 

Katica Ilic, POC Project Coordinator
