Table cxgn.public.cvterm_relationship

A relationship linking two
cvterms. Each cvterm_relationship constitutes an edge in the graph
defined by the collection of cvterms and cvterm_relationships. The
meaning of the cvterm_relationship depends on the definition of the
cvterm R refered to by type_id. However, in general the definitions
are such that the statement all SUBJs REL some OBJ is true. The
cvterm_relationship statement is about the subject, not the
object. For example "insect wing part_of thorax"
