摘要: Ontologies help to identify and formally define the entities relationships in specific domains of interest. Bio-ontologies, particular, play a central role annotation, integration, analysis, interpretation biological data. Missing from number bioontologies is one that includes phenotypic trait information found livestock species. As result, Animal Trait Ontology (ATO) project being carried out under auspices USDA-National Genome Research Program aimed at development standardized ontology for farm animals software tools assist research community collaborative creation, editing, maintenance, use such an ontology. The ATO currently inclusive cattle, pig, chicken species, will include other species future. eventually be linked (e.g., human, rat, mouse) so comparative analysis can efficiently performed between
