Hi, <br>
<br>
I am writing from the Nottingham Arabidopsis Stock Center (NASC) , we
are currently curating over 5000 phenotype descriptions using a
combination of Plant ontology and PATO. We are using an EAV model to
describe the various phenotypes and are finding that some of the value
terms we ant to use are missing from PATO, we already have a list of at
least 20 new terms that we would like including. Is there a term
submission procedure, what is the current state of PATO? <br>
<br>
I am also working with the current GO tools and AMIGO to build an
ontology browser and search method that combines PO and PATO. Is
anyone else doing similar work and interested in collaboration? <br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
