Strain data import to AGR for disease

  • Will begin to consider pulling in strains into AGR
  • Will need to think about how genotypes are built and stored at other MODs
  • We should encourage authors to include strain IDs
  • Diseases are annotated to genes, alleles, and strains within WB


Curating phenotypes and diseases to strains or genotypes

  • Should we generate a ?Genotype class to capture genotypes without a known strain name?
  • We could create un-named strain objects, that use a new unique identifier as a primary identifier, that represent the entire genotype of a strain used
  • When curating phenotypes to strains, we will want to specify what is the relevant/relative genotype that is causative/correlted with the disease or phenotype observation



  • consider strains with same public name that have diverged
  • can use new strain names like "WBPaperStrain001", etc. instead of creating new unique ID attribute
