In order to cross reference from strains to the CARS Parasite Isolate
 
Database I would like to add the Database tag to the ?Strain model.

?Strain
 
DB_info Database ?Database ?Database_field UNIQUE Text

nb. The Database_field needs to be a Text value because their database
 
does not use accession numbers.
