[Fwd: Re: Rosaceae db and PO collaboration]

[Pankaj Jaiswal]

Hi Chih-wei,

As Sue said in her mail and this one from Angela Baldo, looks like you 
need to contact Dorrie Main. I will forward another mail from Angela in 
a moment with a contact for grape project. In the meantime take a look 
at the link Angela has sent and see if there are new terms that we need 
in ontology. Though it is mainly on phenotypes, a quick look tells that 
we need some terms like
calyx tube
calyx lobe
fruit flesh
fruit lenticel

There may be more terms but certainly the STL group would be able to 
tell us more on the proper terms for various parts.

Hi Pankaj,

Good to hear from you!

I'd recommend starting with Dorrie Main, who is the PI in charge of GDR.
  (I've cc'ed Dorrie on this message.)    She would know who in the
international community has made progress in this direction, and if
there's already a committee charged with something like that.

There has been a certain amount of simple morphological characterization
of some of the USDA apple accessions in Geneva; you can see a report,
here: http://www.ars-grin.gov/npgs/descriptors/apple

Hope this helps,

anja
