Methods in Molecular Biology chapter
- Chris and Mary Ann will be in touch with individuals about section writing
- Karen: FlyBase chapter has a small section on pathways; do we want/need a small section?
- As long as we stick to the "how to" focus, we can write as much as needed
- Raymond: We should try to write so that the content remains pertinent for a while
Pharyngeal phenotype terms
- Karen needs pharyngeal pumping phenotype terms for NemaMetrix micropublications
- NemaMetrix experiments often involve serotonin-induced pharyngeal pumping
- Karen asking Raymond to help with pharyngeal phenotype term organization
- Raymond: Not very familiar with the existing usage of the terms and phenotype ontology structure wrt pharyngeal terms
- Authors will submit phenotype data as part of the micropublication process
- Proposal for phenotype ontology going forward: create terms with logical definitions (OWL statements)
