Drosophila anatomy and development ontologies Resource Report Resource Website |
Drosophila anatomy and development ontologies (RRID:SCR_001607) | FBbt | ontology, data or information resource, controlled vocabulary | A structured controlled vocabulary of the anatomy of Drosophila melanogaster. These ontologies are query-able reference sources for information on Drosophila anatomy and developmental stages. They also provide controlled vocabularies for use in annotation and classification of data related to Drosophila anatomy, such as gene expression, phenotype and images. They were originally developed by FlyBase, who continue to maintain them and have used them for over 200,000 annotations of phenotypes and expression. Extensive use of synonyms means that, given a suitably sophisticated autocomplete, users can find relevant content by searching with almost any anatomical term they find in the literature. These ontologies are developed in the web ontology language OWL2. Their extensive formalization in OWL can be used to drive sophisticated query systems. | anatomy, development, developmental stage, gene expression, phenotype, owl |
