The Planteome project

National Science Foundation (NSF) Funds the Planteome Project to Develop Common Reference Ontologies and Applications for Plant Biology

The NSF’s Plant Genome Research Program recently awarded funding to The Planteome Project (http://www.planteome.org) to support the development of "Common Reference Ontologies and Applications for Plant Biology" for a three year period. The Planteome Project will develop a set of common data standards and universal reference vocabularies to describe plant biology and plant stresses and standardized plant gene and phenotype annotation workflows. - April 25, 2015
