Ontology development for Solanaceae

This topic discusses issues in developing controlled-vocabularies for describing Solanaceae phenotypes and traits. Most should be covered by the 'Solanaceae Phenotype Ontology' (SPO) (see SGN->Tools->Ontology browser) which is growing by demand of its users community. Terms which exist in other ontologies (PO, PATO, etc) are mapped to SPO terms. In some cases it will be advised to use other vocabularies, instead of providing new SPO terms.
