Hi Mary,

I am wondering if it is a practical way to display many alleles in  
POC database? I just looked at this maize gene, adh1, it has 575  
variations/alleles (http://www.maizegdb.org/cgi-bin/ 
displaylocusrecord.cgi?id=12021, http://www.maizegdb.org/cgi-bin/ 
locusvarreport.cgi?id=12021).

If most of maize genes have such huge amount of alleles, I think  
providing a external link to MaizeGDB should be sufficient.  I  
searched POC database,  "MaizeGDB:12021" link in this page http:// 
www.plantontology.org/amigo/go.cgi? 
view=details&search_constraint=gp&session_id=9624b1190744163&gp=12021  
didn't direct me to the proper page in MaizeGDB.  Does MaizeGDB have  
stable URL ID to link back to POC?

Here is one example that GOC link back to Flybase, and users can find  
all the alleles in Flybase page (http://amigo.geneontology.org/cgi- 
bin/amigo/go.cgi? 
search_constraint=gp&view=details&session_id=762b1190743889&gp=FBgn00032 
05, click "FB:FBgn0003205", it points to http:// 
flybase.bio.indiana.edu/reports/FBgn0003205.html)
