It supports ontologies in OBO format, OWL, RDF, Rich Release Format (RRF), Protege frames, and LexGrid XML. Functionality includes the ability to browse, search and visualize ontologies as well as to comment on, and create mappings for ontologies. Any registered user can submit an ontology. The NCBO Annotator and NCBO Resource Index can also be accessed via BioPortal. Additional features: * Add Reviews: rate the ontology according to several criteria and describe your experience using the ontology. * Add Mappings: submit point-to-point mappings or upload bulk mappings created with external tools. Notification of new Mappings is RSS-enabled and Mappings can be browsed via BioPortal and accessed via Web services. * NCBO Annotator: Tool that tags free text with ontology terms. NCBO uses the Annotator to generate ontology annotations, creating an ontology index of these resources accessible via the NCBO Resource Index. The Annotator can be accessed through BioPortal or directly as a Web service. The annotation workflow is based on syntactic concept recognition (using the preferred name and synonyms for terms) and on a set of semantic expansion algorithms that leverage the ontology structure (e.g., is_a relations). * NCBO Resource Index: The NCBO Resource Index is a system for ontology based annotation and indexing of biomedical data; the key functionality of this system is to enable users to locate biomedical data linked via ontology terms. A set of annotations is generated automatically, using the NCBO Annotator, and presented in BioPortal. This service uses a concept recognizer (developed by the National Center for Integrative Biomedical Informatics, University of Michigan) to produce a set of annotations and expand them using ontology is_a relations. * Web services: Documentation on all Web services and example code is available at: BioPortal Web services.

Database providing a systematic and comprehensive view of morphological phenotypes regulated by plant hormones, as well as regulatory genes participating in numerous plant hormone responses. By integrating the data from mutant studies, transgenic analysis and gene ontology annotation, genes related to the stimulus of eight plant hormones were identified, including abscisic acid, auxin, brassinosteroid, cytokinin, ethylene, gibberellin, jasmonic acid and salicylic acid. Another pronounced characteristics of this database is that a phenotype ontology was developed to precisely describe all kinds of morphological processes regulated by plant hormones with standardized vocabularies. To increase the coverage of phytohormone related genes, the database has been updated from AHD to AHD2.0 adding and integrating several pronounced features: (1) added 291 newly published Arabidopsis hormone related genes as well as corrected information (e.g. the arguable ABA receptors) based on the recent 2-year literature; (2) integrated orthologues of sequenced plants in OrthoMCLDB into each gene in the database; (3) integrated predicted miRNA splicing site in each gene in the database; (4) provided genetic relationship of these phytohormone related genes mining from literature, which represents the first effort to construct a relatively comprehensive and complex network of hormone related genes as shown in the home page of our database; (5) In convenience to in-time bioinformatics analysis, they also provided links to a powerful online analysis platform Weblab that they have recently developed, which will allow users to readily perform various sequence analysis with these phytohormone related genes retrieved from AHD2.0; (6) provided links to other protein databases as well as more expression profiling information that would facilitate users for a more systematic analysis related to phytohormone research. Please help to improve the database with your contributions.
